  • Maintain compliance with the DOE’s Early Childhood Framework for Quality (EFQ).
  • Facilitate professional development sessions and coordinate learning days throughout the year.
  • Build and maintain relationships with community partners offering mental health, special needs, and supportive services.
  • Attend weekly team meetings and NYC DOE training sessions.
  • Support outreach, enrollment, and administrative tasks as needed.

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Teams) and Zoom.
  • Experience working with children under age 5 (required).
  • Ability to work remotely with reliable internet access.
  • Willingness to travel within Queens for on-site coaching at in-home childcare locations.
  • Strong time management, multitasking, and teamwork skills.
  • Cultural competency and respect for diverse backgrounds of QCCN providers and families.
  • Experience in family or group family childcare settings (preferred).
