"Every kid is one caring adult away from being a success story." 

Considering starting a career in childcare?

A career in child care is incredibly rewarding, as it allows you to make a meaningful impact on children's lives every day. Working in child care means being part of a child's most formative years, helping them discover their strengths, explore their world, and build self-confidence. It’s a field full of joy, connection, and purpose, ideal for those passionate about shaping future generations.


At Niko's, we offer all the resources you need to build a successful career in Early Childhood Education. Our employees receive paid training and have opportunities for advancement to positions such as Center Director and Assistant Director, provided they qualify and the roles are available. They also receive dental and vision health benefits as well as VQB5 Incentive Program for Teachers where they are eligible to win up to $3,000.

Join us to make a difference while building a fulfilling and inspiring career!

How do I know if childcare is for me?

Patience

Am I a patient person?

Working with young children requires a calm and steady approach, as each child develops at their own pace and responds differently to new experiences. Patience helps caregivers navigate challenging behaviors and create a positive, supportive environment where every child feels safe to learn and grow.

Empathy

Am I empathic?

Empathy is crucial for understanding and connecting with children, allowing caregivers to see situations from their perspective. This sensitivity helps caregivers respond to each child’s needs, build trusting relationships, and promote a strong sense of security and belonging.

Creativity

Am I creative?

Creativity allows caregivers to design engaging, educational activities that spark curiosity and joy. It’s essential for adapting lessons to suit different learning styles and keeping children motivated and excited about learning, making every day in child care rewarding and enriching for everyone involved.
