**JOB POSTING**

**Black EarlyON Program Coordinator**

**Summary**
Early Childhood Development Initiative (ECDI) is a Toronto based non-profit established to promote optimal early childhood development (ECD) and strengthen childcare and learning outcomes for Black African children aged 0-12 years. ECDI is partnering with a coalition of EarlyON agencies in Etobicoke (on a pilot project), to develop and deliver culturally relevant EarlyON programming for Black children aged 0-6, and their families. Funding for this project is a result of Toronto Children Services’ commitment to enhancing the quality, safety and cultural responsiveness of its programming and services for Black children and their families.

Reporting to the Programs Manager at ECDI, the EarlyON Program Coordinator will be responsible for developing and implementing culturally safe programs for Black families and their children 0-6 years, to meet the project's goals. The Coordinator will create safe and stimulating play-based environments to support the developmental needs of Black children 0-6 years and facilitate positive parent-child play and engagement.

- Personally, and professionally, you have a deep understanding of the rights and dignity of all children and families and an unwavering commitment to providing equitable opportunities and relevant programs that celebrate Black cultures.

**Program Coordinator Responsibilities**
- Conduct community consultations to identify programming needs of Black families and utilize findings to develop culturally relevant programs for Black families with children 0-6 years
- Develop culturally safe strategies to involve Black parents and caregivers in play-based learning activities that empower and instill a sense of belonging

- Model and include parents in the process of understanding how learning is happening through play
- Foster opportunities for parents/caregivers and children to connect with each other and create meaningful peer relationships within programs
- Facilitate community connections, linking parents with resources, services and programming that will positively impact them
- Utilize a variety of teaching techniques including modeling, active listening, observing, questioning, demonstrating, supporting, and encouraging children
