Shape a child’s very first learning experiences. At Guidepost Montessori, our Lead Infant Guides create calm, nurturing environments where infants are respected as capable individuals from the very beginning.

If you’re passionate about early development and want to lead a thoughtfully designed classroom that supports independence, movement, and discovery, we’d love to meet you.

As a Lead Infant Guide, you’ll lead a mixed-age infant classroom (ages 0–3) in a Montessori environment intentionally designed to support each child’s natural development.

In Montessori, the environment and the guide work together to nurture independence, curiosity, and confidence. You’ll thoughtfully prepare the classroom, observe each child closely, and provide individualized care that honors their unique rhythms and needs.

Most importantly, you’ll help infants develop trust in themselves and the world around them laying the foundation for lifelong learning.
