JLU gives quality care to our students and our employees.

Professionally, our employees enjoy compensation that's competetive in the childcare industry and receive several raises each year.

JLU loves to support and encourage professional development and gives all employees the opportunity to achieve a Child Development Associate degree at no cost and during work hours. Teachers also appreciate a well-stocked center, with classroom materials and supplies provided with no out-of-pocket cost. Personally, we are a family.
