Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Help lessen disruptive or challenging actions so each child can participate more fully
• Remain fully mobile throughout sessions—standing, walking, sitting, grasping, reaching, bending, kneeling, crouching, squatting, lifting, and occasionally carrying children or materials weighing as much as 50 pounds—because activity levels vary and sessions stay energetic
• Collaborate with colleagues to keep support consistent and inspiring for every child and family

What You Bring

• Patience, kindness, and comfort working inside a collaborative team
• Age of at least 18 years
