New Orleans Early Childhood Jobs

Early childhood educators play a key role in the life of children by helping create a solid foundation for their future learning.

Early childhood educators work with children from birth through age five in a variety of settings: early learning programs (also known as child care centers or daycares), school-based pre-k classrooms, or family child care programs that operate in homes.

Key duties include working in classroom settings, supporting child development and learning, and documenting children's progress. Educators are also tasked with planning and facilitating meaningful and engaging activities.
