A smarter way to post jobs and find the right candidates!
Childcare providers already have more than enough to manage. Between staffing classrooms, supporting families, handling licensing demands, and keeping daily operations moving, there is rarely time to post jobs across multiple sites, monitor emails, and sort through applications.
The PSSA Job Board, powered through Acquire4Hire, gives providers one place to post openings, keep applications organized, and reach more candidates without paying for multiple listings.
Why It Matters?
Hiring in childcare is rarely simple. Providers often spend time posting jobs in multiple places, tracking emails, and paying for listings that do not always deliver results. When your day is already full, strong candidates can easily get lost. A centralized system helps you stay organized, save money, and focus on the applicants who truly matter.
Save time on posting
Manage hiring from one place instead of juggling multiple job boards.
Reduce posting costs
Post through the PSSA Job Board without purchasing separate listings from each participating site.

One Post, Broader Reach
Early Childhood Jobs SC, powered by Acquire4Hire, helps childcare providers share eligible job postings across multiple participating job sites without recreating the same listing over and over. Distribution partners and posting requirements may change, and each outside job board controls whether and how a position appears. Even when a listing is not accepted by every participating site, Acquire4Hire still gives providers one place to create posts, reach candidates, and manage the hiring process.
Participating job sites and distribution requirements are subject to change. Placement is not guaranteed on every site.
Built for Childcare Hiring
The platform includes customizable job-description templates created for common early care and education positions. Providers can use the templates as a starting point and adjust responsibilities, qualifications, compensation, benefits, schedules, and program details before publishing.
- Program Director
- Assistant Director
- Lead Teacher
- Assistant Teacher

- Preschool Teacher
- Floater

- Maintenance and Support Staff

Manage Hiring Across Multiple Locations
Programs operating more than one site can manage multiple openings from a single dashboard. Listings and applicants can be organized by location, making it easier to keep hiring activity clear and consistent across the organization.
A Note About Indeed
Indeed is changing how it accepts job postings from applicant-tracking systems such as Acquire4Hire. No final end date has been announced, but listings submitted through Acquire4Hire may not always appear on Indeed.
For now, eligible job posts may still be distributed to Indeed through the Acquire4Hire network, but appearance and visibility cannot be guaranteed because Indeed controls its own verification, acceptance, and posting requirements.
Acquire4Hire continues to distribute eligible postings to other participating job boards, so providers can still benefit from wider exposure beyond a single site.
If Indeed Is Important to Your Program
Programs that want their Acquire4Hire job postings to appear on Indeed should complete Indeed's one-time authentication process. Completing authentication does not guarantee that every position will be accepted, but it may increase the likelihood that eligible postings appear.
As part of this authentication process, Indeed requires the business to have a website and provide its website URL so Indeed can verify the legitimacy of the organization.
Instructions for completing authentication appear in Acquire4Hire when members log in. You can also review Indeed's current Indeed Authentication Process FAQ.
Providers may also choose to post directly on Indeed. However, posting directly requires the provider to manage that listing separately from the Acquire4Hire dashboard.
Create a Stronger Job Post
- Use a clear, searchable job title
- Keep the title to approximately 35 characters or fewer when possible
- Describe one clearly defined position
- Include the job location
- Explain the primary responsibilities
- Separate required and preferred qualifications
- Include compensation and benefits when available
- Avoid emojis, symbols, excessive punctuation, and all-capital wording
- Do not place salary or bonus information in the job title
- Describe the program and work environment clearly
- Keep applicants inside the approved Acquire4Hire application process
- Do not add outside application links that could cause distribution partners to reject the listing
