About Northwest Center Kids: At Northwest Center Kids Early Learning, we believe that when children with and without disabilities learn and play together, all of them reach their full potential. It's a principle going back to 1965, when our founders fought for the rights of all children to receive an education, and an approach we've been perfecting since Northwest Center introduced inclusive early learning in 1980. Today, Northwest Center Kids Early Learning provides high-quality care and education to children with and without developmental delays or disabilities and challenging behaviors. In our classrooms, all children are welcomed, celebrated, and nurtured so they can learn and thrive together. This position falls under a collective bargaining agreement with the SEIU Local 925 union.
