Montessori Assistant Teacher

New Adventures Montessori is a boutique, family-centered Montessori school rooted in love, intention, and deep respect for childhood.

Founded by three mothers who asked a simple but powerful question—What do we truly want for our children, and how do we create that in a school? —our community has grown from a small seed into a thriving learning environment where children, families, and educators feel genuinely seen and valued.

We are now seeking a Montessori Teaching Assistant who brings warmth, presence, and care to their work and who feels called to support young children during the rhythm of their day.

Who We Are

At New Adventures, learning is an adventure. We believe in nurturing a child's innate curiosity, honoring their individuality, and creating an environment that feels calm, joyful, and respectful. Our classrooms are intentionally prepared, and our team works closely together to support both children and one another.

Schedule

• Monday–Friday
• Up to 35 hours per week
