Every classroom at Guidepost comes equipped with the full range of high-quality Montessori materials for the Children's House curriculum, as well as a budget for guides to personalize their space. Each classroom is set up according to the Montessori principles of beauty and order and is designed to enable every child to learn, concentrate, and confidently achieve their independence.  

A Guidepost Montessori Children's House space features:  

• Child-sized furniture and ample floor space for children to work independently or in small groups 

• Practical life materials for children to sweep, set the table, dust, prepare meals, and so much more

• All materials made accessible to children on low shelves and all art at the child's level 

• Cozy reading areas, real plants, and plenty of natural light

If you're passionate about giving children the tools they need to succeed, eager to partner with parents on their child's journey, and longing to join a collaborative community of peers, then the team at Guidepost Montessori would love to hear from you! 

An ideal candidate has:
