Afterschool Enrichment Lead Teacher

Description We are seeking a dynamic, high-energy Afterschool Enrichment Lead Teacher to inspire New York City’s youngest learners (ages 2–6) and spark a lifelong love of learning through engaging, hands-on enrichment experiences.

As a natural storyteller with a flair for engagement and a passion for early childhood development, you create meaningful, memorable moments that build confidence, curiosity, and joy in every child.
