Career Opportunities

Welcome to Our Family

Thank you for choosing Stepping Stone School as the next step in your career journey. You will be joining an elite team of professional educators who possess positive energy, motivation, and the integrity to “practice what we preach.” Stepping Stone School provides equal employment opportunities, and as the most progressive Early Care and Education organization in the country, we firmly believe that the valuable work we do makes the world a better place each and every day.

When you come to work at Stepping Stone School, you become a member of our family. While other child care facilities might pay you to babysit, at Stepping Stone, you will become a qualified expert in Early Care and Education. We invest in your professional development so that as you grow and improve yourself, our community becomes stronger, healthier, and happier. Our mission is to create a “New Community” in which children, parents, and teachers work together to create a synergy that has far-reaching effects. Children who “graduate” from Stepping Stone are better prepared, both academically and socially, than most of their peers. Parents who have confidence that their children are receiving the very best care and education during the day are free to focus all of their attention and energy on their own work and activities. And teachers who know that they are making a positive contribution to a healthy community remain energized and enthusiastic on the job.

Healthy families are the foundation of a healthy society. When you join our family, you are not just an employee, but an active participant in a positive force in our culture – and it sure feels wonderful to be a part of something going right in the world!

For more information, please call our Administrative Offices at (512) 459-0258, or visit us at 1910 Justin Lane, Austin, Texas, 78758, between the hours of 8:00am and 5:30pm, Monday through Friday.
