Play Staff/Caregiver

Wanna Play is a play based Child Care Center offering drop-in care, preschool, camps and after school care. We believe play is an important part of a child's early development. We have created a fun, safe place for children 6 wks to 12 yrs to play, meet friends and explore. If you are a service oriented person who loves working with children, this might be the perfect job for you.
