Work, Live, and Play in Yellowstone National Park!

Little People's Learning Center is looking for a Teacher to join the team. This position may be primarily in the Infant or Toddler room, depending upon the Center's needs.

3. Diapering

4. Maintaining nap schedules

5. Stimulating play

6. Reading

Little People's serves a small community. It's common to run into families we serve on the trails or around town. This creates a friendly place to live because we largely depend, or will depend, on each other at some point. The staff collaborates with each other to get the most out of the team and the children at the Center. Living in Yellowstone is a special experience because of the endless beauty and recreational options.

We are a non-profit organization which runs primarily on tuition from a working class community. Pay is $17.00 per hour subject to prior experience. Housing is available through the National Park Service. Little People's offers a housing stipend so that rent is 15% of a teacher's take-home pay.  The surrounding communities outside of National Park Boundaries have limited housing available, usually exceeding $1,200 a month for single room apartments. 

Additionally, Little People's offers paid time off and contributions to a Health Savings Account.
