Nanaimo, Canada Inquiring Little Minds Full time

**About us**

Inquiring Little Minds (ILM) was founded in September 2011. The Saltair Childcare Society (SCS) and ILM work together in a private-public partnership (a long-term arrangement between a government institution and a private sector institution). We also work in partnerships with the City of Port Alberni, Cowichan Valley School District, Nanaimo Ladysmith Public Schools, and Saltair Community Society.

ILM facilities are dedicated to the provision of safe, well-managed childcare services for children that are provided by full and part-time, qualified staff. ILM's goal is to stimulate emotional growth, independent growth, intellectual growth, physical growth, and social growth amongst its charges.

NOTE: This is an entry level position, but you will need previous experience to be considered for this role.

This dynamic position requires someone who is highly organized and confident in making decisions on their own. The day-to-day bookkeeping duties are an obvious must for such a position, however building and maintaining relationships amongst clients while managing priorities and deadlines are the keys to success.
