We are currently adding on-call Substitute teachers to our roster for our three Orange County schools. If you are interested in joining a close knit community and gaining Montessori experience, apply soon!

$15-$17/per hour

Our beautiful schools are spacious and full of natural light. We have low ratios and opportunities for all levels. Learn more about our programs online at Guidepost Montessori.

This position will support multiple mixed-age Montessori classrooms. No formal Montessori training is needed to apply as we will provide training as part of your orientation and on-boarding. If you are only interested in working with infants, toddlers or preschoolers we have opportunities for you!  You can also choose to only work at your local school or gain more hours by being on call for all three locations!  

This is an on-call position where we will reach out to you as-needed to provide coverage when full-time teachers are out sick or on vacation. 

The Substitute Teacher role is a great opportunity to get your foot in the door at Guidepost Montessori. Many of our substitutes ultimately transition into part-time or full-time Assistant Teachers with us when new openings become available. If you love children and have been looking for the right opportunity to join our school community, apply below! 

Hours for the position and days worked vary based on the needs of the school.
