  • A High School Diploma or equivalent.

  • 1+ year of experience in food prep, cooking, childcare, or a related support role (preferred but not required).

  • Ability to obtain a food handling certificate within 90 days of hire.

  • Ability to lift at least 25 lbs and be on your feet for portions of the day.

  • A positive attitude and passion for working with young children.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us:
