Participate in ongoing professional learning, reflection, and quality improvement practices, including team meetings, training opportunities, and one-on-one support meetings with leadership.
Support operations by working in classrooms or with age groups other than those primarily assigned and by travelling between YMCA Childcare Centres as requested by the Centre Director to support ratio coverage.
Perform other related duties as assigned.
