Position Overview
Are you passionate about early childhood education and love the idea of working in a unique, mountain environment? Join the Mt. Hood Meadows Daycare team as a Daycare Teacher and make a difference in the lives of children while enjoying the vibrant energy of a seasonal resort community.
As a Daycare Teacher, you’ll be responsible for creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for young children; all while collaborating with a supportive team and surrounded by the natural beauty of Mt. Hood. You’ll lead your classroom with creativity and care, manage teacher assistants, and design fun, age-appropriate curriculum that keeps kids active, learning, and smiling.
If you're adaptable, team-oriented, and ready to bring your enthusiasm and expertise to a fast-paced, guest-focused setting, this is the perfect opportunity for you. Bonus points if you can ski, snowboard, or speak a second language; but most of all, we’re looking for people who genuinely love working with children and are committed to their safety, growth, and joy.
