Join the Norfolk Area Childcare Collaborative
Help shape the future of our community.
Careers
The Norfolk Area Childcare Collaborative was created to help address one of the region's greatest workforce challenges: access to quality childcare. Through a cooperative model that brings businesses together around a common goal, we are expanding childcare opportunities for families while supporting the growth of our community and local workforce.
At the Kids Collaborative Childcare Center, we're building more than a childcare program. We're creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where children can learn and thrive, families can feel supported, and early childhood professionals can build meaningful careers.
We believe quality childcare starts with investing in the people who provide it. That's why we are committed to offering competitive wages, benefits, professional growth opportunities, and a supportive workplace culture.
