Responsibilities

In addition to the kitchen role, cooks who are interested in time spent in the classroom are welcome.

While not required, presence in both the kitchen and classroom helps create a warm, supportive environment for all.
If you love preparing nutritious meals and want to be part of a collaborative team that makes a difference in children’s lives, we’d love to hear from you!
