You’ll be responsible for planning and delivering exciting, inspiring, and engaging activities that support the development of our youngest learners. At Serendipity, we believe in building strong, lasting relationships with children that help shape their future.

- Campfire adventures
- Muddy puddle stomping
- Outdoor learning sessions that bring joy and real-world discovery into every day
