Toddler Spanish Teacher

Join our beautiful South Naperville campus as a Lead Spanish Toddler Teacher, where you’ll nurture toddlers in a thoughtfully prepared environment that supports their growth, exploration, and independence.

Your Role

We’re looking for a warm, dedicated Spanish-speaking Toddler Teacher to lead a mixed-age classroom of toddlers in a Montessori setting.

In a Montessori classroom, teachers guide each child’s individual journey—offering lessons, introducing hands-on materials, and fostering meaningful independence. Our teachers closely observe each child to understand their needs and help them thrive emotionally, socially, and cognitively.

As a Spanish Toddler Teacher, you will:

• Create a beautiful, orderly classroom that supports curiosity, movement, and independence

• Lead activities that build practical life skills, language, motor development, and social grace

• Build strong, respectful relationships with children and parents

• Use rich, precise language in Spanish to support bilingual learning

• Support toilet learning, self-care, and age-appropriate independence

• Foster a loving, peaceful, and joyful learning community

Your Classroom Environment

Our toddler classrooms include:

• Child-sized furniture and real, natural materials (not plastic)

• Open spaces for movement, crawling, climbing, and self-discovery

• Materials that promote dressing, feeding, and toileting independence

• Cozy rugs, real plants, soft lighting, and breakable objects to encourage care and responsibility

• A full Montessori material set and budget for personalization

You’re a great fit if you:

• Are fluent or native in Spanish

• Have experience working with toddlers (ages 0–3) in a daycare, nursery, or preschool setting

• Hold—or are willing to earn—Montessori certification (we fully sponsor training!)

• Have 12+ Early Childhood Education (ECE) credits

• Hold a bachelor’s degree in ECE, Child Development, or a related field

• Are enthusiastic about Montessori or other child-led education methods

We Offer:

• A fully sponsored Montessori diploma and ongoing development through the Prepared Montessorian Institute

• 75% tuition discount for up to two children

• A supportive team and network of passionate educators

• Career growth and leadership opportunities

• Competitive pay

• Health, dental, and vision insurance

• Paid holidays and time off
