Swimming Teacher

Working for:
Water Babies Ltd

Description:

Water Babies teachers are the best trained swimming teachers in the world and we're proud of giving every parent, carer and baby the best experience possible in and out of the water.

We’re looking for extraordinary people to become part of our family and inspire the next generation of swimmers. As a Water Babies teacher you will receive the highest standard of training and upon completion, will be responsible for creating your own lesson plans and teaching 0-5 year olds the essential skill of swimming and water safety.

Work life balance is vital, so we try to offer a flexible way of working when it comes to shifts in the pool. Our promises to you include: we’ll help you make a real difference in the world; we’ll inspire you with passions and progress; we’ll care for you like family; and we’ll help you become the best “you” possible! If you're ready to learn more, all you need is passion - we'll provide the rest.

Our teachers are required to undertake six weeks of online training and spend a minimum of 10 hours shadowing a range of teachers and lessons. Our teachers will then dive in to an eight-day residential course to explore our programme in depth and learn about child development, strokes and skills. Lastly, they’ll shadow a few more classes to finalise everything they’ve learnt before they begin to lead their own classes..
