Happyfeet Sports Instructor

HappyFeet Instructor for Ages 2-5

HappyFeet is a physical activity program for children ages 2-6.

HappyFeet coaches possess the following characteristics:

- Energetic (You're working with 2-6 year olds so your energy is contagious)
- Confident (You're leading a group of 10-12 little ones so the ability to manage all these little people requires confidence and assertiveness. It's also important that you're comfortable interacting with parents)
- Reliable/Responsible, (The expectation is that coaches are able to attend all 6 of their sessions within a block of classes, substitute coaches are available but take away from the personal connection if the coach is constantly absent)
- Prior experience with young children (preferably in a similar environment. Ex. Swimming instructor, gymnastics, summer camps, etc. )

Individuals with Kinesiology, Education or early childhood education backgrounds will be given first preference. No soccer knowledge is required, although it's an asset.

This is a casual position working 2-6 hours/week during evenings and weekends at $15-20.00/hr ( based on experience and certification). Classes are typically offered from 5:30pm-7:30pm during the week.

We are looking for individuals to start training in late August/Early September to be coaching on their own by end of September. If you are interested in this position, please attach a short half page summary describing your previous experiences working with this age group, as well as an explanation as to why you would be a great HappyFeet Coach.

Application deadline will be August 15, 2023.
