Job description
Early Alpine Academy is a play-based, relationship-driven early learning program located in the
heart of downtown Bozeman. We serve children from infancy through preschool with consistent
daily rhythms, a team that truly shows up, and a deep commitment to connection-between
teachers and children, between families and caregivers, and within our teaching team itself.
Our classrooms and outdoor space are full of joyful play, hands-on exploration, and rich
opportunities for social-emotional growth. Whether we're stacking blocks, navigating big
feelings, or getting messy in the sensory bin, we believe learning happens best when children
feel safe, seen, and excited to be here. We work closely with Bozeman's working families to
create a warm, dependable partnership-and a daily experience that feels as good as it is
developmentally sound.

steadiness and care. You'll follow the Lead Teacher's guidance, work together as a team, and
help create strong, trusting relationships with families through warm, consistent communication.
If you love joining toddlers in their world-and you find meaning in doing the small things
well-this might be the role for you.
What You'll Be Doing
Being a steady, grounding presence for toddlers-helping them feel safe, seen, and cared for through tone, pacing, and consistent connection
Joining children in meaningful play-from building block towers to splashing in water tables, you'll follow their lead with joy and curiosity
Supporting consistent routines-doing the same caregiving tasks day in and day out (diapering, meals, naps, transitions) with patience and care
Communicating thoughtfully with families-building trust through daily updates, respectful conversation, and a genuine interest in their child's needs
Collaborating closely with your Lead Teacher-checking in regularly, sharing observations, working as a united front for the classroom, and taking over the lead role while the lead teacher is out on PTO
Helping toddlers navigate big feelings-by staying calm, offering connection, and modeling emotional regulation
Noticing and documenting growth-by observing children with curiosity and logging meaningful moments in Brightwheel
Pitching in wherever you're needed-whether it's prepping materials, wiping down a table, or offering a quiet lap in a tough moment
