Job description

Futures start here. Where first steps, new friendships, and confident learners are born. At KinderCare Learning Companies, the first and only early childhood education provider recognized with the Gallup Exceptional Workplace Award , we offer a variety of early education and child care options for families. Whether it’s KinderCare Learning Centers, Champions, or Crème de la Crème, we build confidence for kids, families, and the future we share. And we want you to join us in shaping it—in neighborhoods, at work, and in schools nationwide.

At KinderCare Learning Companies, you’ll use your skills and expertise to support the work (and fun) that happens in our sites and centers every day. From marketers and strategists to financial analysts and data engineers, and so much more, we’re all passionate about crafting a world where children, families, and organizations can thrive.

KinderCare Learning Companies is looking for an early-career writer to join our Proposal Team in a unique, apprenticeship-style role. This is an opportunity to build hands-on experience in the exciting, fast-paced field of proposal development where writing, collaboration, and strategy come together.

You don’t need a background in proposals to be a great fit. We’re looking for someone who brings curiosity, a strong writing foundation, and the ability to thrive under deadlines. You'll work alongside experienced proposal professionals, learn how to craft persuasive responses to government and client RFPs, and help tell the story of how KinderCare delivers high-quality early childhood education across the country.

If you're methodical, turn things in early, and always work in advance of deadlines, proposal writing might be for you.

Responsibilities

  • Draft, edit, and format written proposals with clear guidance from experienced team members
  • Attend and run proposal meetings, including kickoffs, team check-ins, and debriefs
  • Take ownership of small proposal projects, such as writing bios, formatting résumés, organizing attachments, or drafting basic narrative responses
  • Manage timelines and track deliverables, ensuring you meet deadlines in a structured, reliable way
  • Communicate regularly with teammates, asking questions and collaborating to ensure your work meets expectations
  • Learn to use AI and writing tools to improve clarity, speed, and quality
  • Bring a fresh perspective, contributing ideas on how to make our proposals more clear, human, and impactful

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in a writing-intensive field such as English, Communications, Journalism, Education, Public Policy, or a related area OR equivalent professional or academic experience that demonstrates strong writing and organizational skills
  • A strong, adaptable writer who can take feedback and make work stronger without taking it personally
  • Energized by deadlines, and motivated to complete high-quality work, even when time is tight
  • Organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to juggle tasks and stay focused
  • Able to juggle multiple complex projects concurrently
  • Curious and unafraid to ask questions when you need help
  • Comfortable working with Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, and other common writing tools
  • Excited to learn how to use AI (ChatGPT) as a writing partner
  • Interested in education, public service, or persuasive writing, but not necessarily experienced in those fields
  • Some experience writing under deadlines (in school, work, or extracurriculars)
  • Experience working on a team, managing tasks, or running meetings (can be formal or informal)
  • Interest in using tools like AI to improve writing quality and efficiency
  • We’re looking for someone with a strong foundation in writing and communication , whether that comes from school, work, or personal projects.

    #LI-Remote

    Our benefits meet you where you are. We’re here to help our employees navigate the integration of work and life :

  • Know your whole family is supported with discounted child care benefits.
  • Breathe easy with medical, dental, and vision benefits for your family (and pets, too!).
  • Feel supported in your mental health and personal growth with employee assistance programs.
  • Feel great and thrive with access to health and wellness programs, paid time off and discounts for work necessities, such as cell phones.
  • … and much more.
  • We operate research-backed, accredited, and customizable programs in more than 2,000 sites and centers across 40 states and the District of Columbia. As we expand, we’re matching the needs of more and more families, dynamic work environments, and diverse communities from coast to coast. Because we believe every family deserves access to high-quality child care, no matter who they are or where they live. Every day, you’ll help bring this mission to life by building community and delivering exceptional experiences. And if you’re anything like us, you’ll come for the work, and stay for the people.
