Apply for Lead Two-Year-Old Teacher

Redstone Children's Academy is committed to providing quality care in a loving, Christ-centered environment where children can develop to their fullest potential- spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, and physically. At RCA, we believe that each child is a unique individual and should be recognized as an image-bearer- created to know, love, and be in communion with God. We seek to provide positive and developmentally-appropriate learning activities that help children gain confidence in their God-given abilities and develop a love for learning. Our vision is to encourage and empower kingdom-ambassadors with Christ-like character to impact their community through truth-seeking, bridge-building, servant-leading, and faith-keeping for the glory of God. Through our program, we pray that each child would come to know without a doubt that Jesus loves them.
