We’re looking for a friendly, customer focused person to become a Water Babies teacher, delivering our award winning lessons to 0-5 year olds.
You don’t need to have any previous swimming teaching experience, full training will be given, but you do need two years experience in a customer facing role, a full driving licence, access to a car and to be happy working a Saturday. There is also a requirement for a week away from home as part of the training for the role.
The position would suit someone from a retail, customer service or childcare background or someone with previous experience teaching or coaching sport.
Due to some of the training required for the role, applicants must be over 18.
Being a Water Babies teacher is a demanding job, but you get so much back from it in return. It's hard to beat the joy of seeing a child take their first swimming steps and learn a skill that could save their life.
Rates of pay are £18.50/£21.00 per hour depending on the day, typical teachers have a 6-12 hour week across 1-3 days, during school term time, consisting of a large weekend shift and a couple of smaller weekday shifts.
There may also be the opportunity over time to grow into a role involved in the running of the local Water Babies office.
