Early Childhood Teacher Assistant – part time

The Wolk Children’s Center at the JCC believes that children grow best with exploration, discovery, and play. We provide a supportive and caring environment to celebrate each child’s uniqueness and build empathy for others. The Wolk Center offers a safe and nurturing environment that understands children are constructivist learners and learn by play and social interaction with their friends. At present, we have 14 classrooms open and are hoping to open more classrooms soon to accommodate our growing waiting list.
