Central to our mission is the notion that the development of an authentic and nurturing relationship with a caregiver shapes a child’s experience and growth.
Love defines our staff culture at A Mother’s Touch. The people we hire share a passion for education, a record of experience caring for children, and a commitment to care for each other like family.
We make it a priority assume the best intentions of others. When in doubt, we ask questions and seek clarification instead of jumping to conclusions. We listen first because we believe the purpose of dialogue is to learn from others, not solely to convey one point of view. While listening, we empathetically take on a perspective that is different from our own. Always solutions oriented, we communicate clearly and directly.
We expect each other to always ask why. Why? Prioritizing the “why” helps guard against complacency. Our decisions are child-centered and consistently grounded in all aspects of the A Mother’s Touch mission.
We embrace a growth mindset, continually reflecting on and actively improving our performance so that we can best support our children. We commit to staying current regarding what is known about how children grow and develop by continuing education and maintaining Gateways credentials. We regularly initiate reflection on information about each child to guide instruction and to support each child in reaching feasible and ambitious goals.
We look for opportunities to learn from one another, from our children, and from our families. Our team is successful when each person demonstrates flexibility and strong follow through. Our team values relationships and regularly seeks ways to serve each other and the broader school community.
We value our employees and offer a competitive benefits package that includes:
