Non-Profit 🍁 Nature School

Come join our team! Westbrook Nature School, now i

Come join our team! Westbrook Nature School, now in its eleventh year, is seeking a part-time Assistant Teacher for our Mixed-Age Kindergarten (ages 3 to 6) for the 2025-26 school year.

Located on 6 acres in beautiful Redding, CT, Westbrook is a licensed, outdoor, nature-based, nonprofit preschool where learning happens in rain, sunshine, snow, mud, and wind. Here, every day is an adventure in the outdoors! Teachers should be ready to embrace full mornings outdoors, experiencing all types of weather, able to work collaboratively with colleagues, and assist with all aspects of daily activities, including snack preparation and classroom maintenance.

What makes Westbrook special?

A Strong Community Focus: We’re more than just a school; we’re a tight-knit community of educators and families united by our commitment to nurturing children’s curiosity and fostering love and respect for the earth.

Small Class Size: With a 1:4 teacher-to-student ratio, you’ll have the opportunity to build deep, meaningful relationships with each child, ensuring personalized attention and care.

Creativity: Our educators implement an engaging, nature-inspired curriculum that supports children’s development while fostering a deep connection to the environment.

Work That Moves You - Literally! This role is perfect for someone who thrives in an active environment, enjoys outdoor challenges, and finds joy in nature’s ever-changing beauty.

Professional Growth: We value your development too. Paid training starts in the spring, giving you the tools and confidence to dive into this fulfilling role come August. We also offer nature-based professional development during the school year.

We’re looking for someone enthusiastic, energetic, and strong - a person who brings warmth, creativity, and a sense of wonder to the class. If you’re passionate about child development and the natural world, we’d love to hear from you!

This is a part-time position running from late August through early June.
Mon/Wed/Fri: 8:00 AM – 1:30 PM
Tues/Thurs: 8:00 AM – 12:12:45 PM

Ready to make a difference? Submit your cover letter and resume to Danielle Caldwell, Director, at info@westbrooknatureschool.org.
