Discovery Point Lutz is on the hunt for Preschool Teachers who show up with energy, lead with heart, and genuinely light up around little learners. We’re not your average childcare center — we’re a team that cheers each other on, celebrates the small wins, and believes great teachers deserve to love where they work.
Why work at our preschool? Because here, you’re more than just an employee — you’re family.
As a family-owned and operated preschool, we’ve built our school around one simple belief: when teachers feel supported, valued, and appreciated, children thrive. That’s why we put people first in everything we do.
Unlike large corporate centers, our owner is on-site daily, actively involved, approachable, and invested in both our students and our team. Your voice matters here. Your ideas are heard. Your hard work is noticed and celebrated.
We’ve created a warm, positive environment where teamwork, respect, and genuine relationships come first. From the classrooms to leadership, we believe in lifting each other up, creating meaningful connections, and making every day rewarding.
If you’re looking for a place where you can grow professionally, feel appreciated personally, and make a lasting impact on children and families, this is more than a job — it’s a community you’ll love being part of.
Candidates should have a positive attitude, a love for children, and a team-player mentality. DCF 45 Hours are preferred, and a CDA or Staff Credential is a plus for lead positions.
