Bright Horizons Family Solutions Careers and Employment

Low pay for everything that is expected of you. High turnover but even when you do have the staff you have to place half on call because you can only have so many labor hours used, but then when people call off those staff already have plans, so then the teachers that do show up to work are the ones to suffer and have to work overtime. favoritism is rampant, yet we are told it's all in our heads ineffective communication nobody in management is ever on the same page all these surveys to try to fix the problem, but none of them actually seem to matter

I would keep the ratios low in the preschool classrooms, I would set up a planning time schedule, I would give teachers 15 minute breaks, I would have the sandboxes professionally cleaned every month, I would show my staff how much I value and care about them every week. I would be encouraging and kind to my staff and not play favorites. I would listen to my teaching staffs ideas and implement them and I would pay my staff what their worth and increase their pay yearly from $1.00 to $2.00 depending on how well they did on their performance review.

Be co doesn’t, honest, and clear of your professional goals. ASK QUESTIONS! Ask about the company’s philosophy and mission, work culture, challenges and how they handle them etc.

I had 2 Call interviews for the Nanny/In Home Care Position I answered questions on my past Experience and What would I do Scenarios I was told within 1 hour I wasn't hired..20+ Years working with Children and wasn't Hired..Good Luck Candidates

It took about 2 weeks after applying online to be called for a in person interview. In this interview you at a brief tour of the many classrooms with the children. Then if you are offered the job, you are given paperwork to complete. The paperwork explains the job and what you need to have done- like medical TB test, background checks, health screen etc. After this theres also online training to be done at home not in the center. Then about 2/3 weeks or so after this online training is when you physically go to the physical training in person at your center. The whole process from hire date to physical training is about 6 weeks. Very long and tedious process but worth it if you truly know why you want to be there.

After you apply, a recruiter calls you to discuss which age groups you would work best with, then that recruiter sets you up with the center to schedule an interview. After the interview (mine was myself and another candidate answering questions to the Director, Assistant Director, and an Education Coordinator) you are invited to visit the age group you have applied to work with in a working interview. During the working interview, you can do an activity, ask questions, read a book, etc. with the class.

I was able to get a 50% discount. However, even with the “discount” I was still paying significantly more than I would have sending my child anywhere else at full price. Tuition took a large portion of my check.

You occur vacation time.
