Job Description

My name is Ms. Brittani. I am a Pre-K teacher at 5 Senses School. This will be my second school year at the school and truly, it feels like I've hit the jackpot by finding this community. If you are looking for a supportive environment where all teachers work as a team, you've found the right place. 5 Senses is a nature based, Reggio inspired school that provides the opportunity for teachers to bring their own strengths and personality to the classroom. For example, I am a teacher with purple hair, who drives a pumpkin car, and loves animals, music, and whimsy. Each day, I am allowed the opportunity to truly be myself and share my interests with both children and parents. In our classroom, being yourself is the most important quality. Our Pre-K class provides structure,while also allowing for chances for children to explore and for curiosity to flourish
  • this applies to teachers too! Throughout the day, you will get to connect with each child in a meaningful way and will go home knowing you made a difference. Staff Testimonials
  • Sam P (6+ Years at 5 Senses)—"Working here at 5 Senses is a refreshing turn of pace in a chaotic industry.
The endless amounts of resources create freedom and fun throughout the whole year. We teachers work together to help create a community (of the students and families) where kids can flourish at being kids. Setting them up for balanced and well-rounded futures is the goal. The big backyard is just an added bonus!" Samantha M ( 1+ Year at 5 Senses)
  • "A great addition to 5 Senses School would be someone who is curious, creative, and loving as all the teachers here.
We are a place that accepts all for who they are and have built an environment where we learn more about ourselves each day. I would love to work alongside someone who is passionate about the care they provide for children. Someone who is looking to make a change in children's lives and is willing to commit to doing so. The greatest mind is the mind of a child and each day spent at 5 Senses proves that. If you are looking for somewhere to express your ideas and be able to execute them with any and all materials then this school is a place you'll soon call home." Karen (15+ Years at 5 Senses
  • "The diversity of our teachers in both their passion and personalities is amazing. They fully embrace the whole child approach to learning. We would love to add to our play based, outdoor environment teaching family." Parent Testimonials
  • Christina (Google
  • "The teachers here make you feel like family, their warmth and engagement is really hard to match. My kid has learned to be more respectful, independent and caring in the couple of years she has been here. She also learned the letters, shapes, and how to enjoy nature. We could not have enjoyed more this experience." Heather (Google
  • "Transferring our toddler and preschool sons from a chain daycare to Five Senses is one of the best decisions we ever made!
It took them zero time to adapt because the environment and teachers were so welcoming and FUN. I am delighted to see our children learning LIFE SKILLS, leaning into their curiosity, and being challenged physically and socially in addition to academically. I love that this is achieved through a primarily play-based program because that is how children at this age effectively learn. The teachers and directors at Five Senses are passionate and amazing at what they do, which is supporting young children to develop into whole, healthy human beings. Hands down, this school is incredible."
