We strive to have highly qualified, skilled staff work in the Beth Shalom Early Childhood Center. All lead teachers are required to complete twenty (20) hours of basic Early Childhood Training and ten hours of annual continuing education. All staff members are certified in CPR and First Aid. We seek loving and nurturing staff that truly enjoys working with children. Our lead teachers all have degrees in Early Childhood Education or a related field, and/or extensive experience.
