Are You Called to Teach and Serve with Purpose? Join A Team Where You Are Cherished & Appreciated

At A Child’s Touch, we believe teaching is more than a job—it’s a calling. We’re looking for Christ-centered individuals who are passionate about children and eager to grow both personally and spiritually. If you’re a life-long learner with a heart to lead, love, and serve, you’ll find a home here.

We are more than a school—we are a family. When you join our team, you become part of a community united by a shared mission: to guide children’s hearts and minds toward the heart and mind of Christ.

This work is meaningful and deeply rewarding—but it’s not for everyone. If you’re simply looking for childcare work, are hesitant to grow, or don’t share our values and vision, this may not be the right fit. But if you’re seeking a place to make a kingdom impact—where your gifts are nurtured, your faith is strengthened, and your purpose is lived out daily—we invite you to prayerfully consider joining the ACT family.

Assistant Teacher

Wanted: a compassionate and self-motivated individual with a specific interest in education. In this position, you will be responsible for supervising students, developing lesson plans, preparing lesson material, and maintaining classroom tidiness. If you consider yourself a friendly and competent teacher assistant, we’d love to hear from you.

Want To Understand Our Philosophy?

At A Child’s Touch, we deeply value the calling and commitment of early childhood educators. Their role in shaping young minds and hearts is both profound and sacred. We believe that nurturing children in their formative years lays the foundation for a lifetime of faith, learning, and love.

In Episode 57 of the Called and Curious podcast, titled “Have You Thanked a Teacher Today? Here’s Why It Matters!”, Ashriel Huber offers a heartfelt tribute to early childhood educators. She emphasizes that teaching young children is not merely a job but a divine calling that requires passion, dedication, and a heart aligned with God’s purpose. Ashriel draws a beautiful parallel between teachers and bonfires, illustrating how educators ignite curiosity and wonder in young hearts, much like flames that light the way. She encourages us all to support and appreciate these educators, recognizing their vital role in our communities.

This episode resonates with our mission at A Child’s Touch, where we strive to create a nurturing, Christ-centered environment for children to grow and thrive. We invite you to listen to this inspiring episode and join us in celebrating the incredible impact of early childhood educators.
