Children's Circle Work Values

Daily Duties at Children's Circle:

I mentored the teachers as they worked to base their planning on the interests of the children. The classrooms were run in the style of The Creative Curriculum. This approach takes a great deal of hands on modeling for the teachers to become proficient at this style of teaching. I led a staff of 18. Children's Circle is NAEYC accredited. My responsibilities included maintaining the Center's budget, collecting tuition payments and maintaining each family's records, banking, submitting for timely payment of bills, maintaining each child's full records, and each staff member's record.

What they like about Children's Circle:

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
