Summer Camp Youngest Camper Counselor Lead - Newton

Job Responsibilities

• The only small piece of this job is the size of your campers’ shoes. Our youngest campers (ages 4-5) are free to take on camp with self-direction like our older campers, but that doesn’t mean they don’t need some extra TLC. As the youngest campers' lead counselor, you’ll utilize resources provided by S&K to implement and manage the structure of the camp day, manage a team of support staff, and generally make sure that we are meeting all the baseline needs of our little ones.

• Minimum of 2 months experience working with camp-age children, with 1 year preferred, in either a professional, personal or volunteer setting.
• First Aid & CPR certified prior to Day 1 of Camp (some locations may require additional certifications)
• You may be asked to chaperone campers on an off-site Field Trip where locations demand.

Qualifications

• Motivated babysitter, teacher, coach, student, athlete, artist, and anyone ready to play hard and be goofy.
• Sharpen your inherent leadership skills, learn some new ones, and collaborate with interesting people, all while immersing yourself in creativity and play.

Skills

• Empowering staff to be their whole authentic selves
• Self-starter excited at the idea of taking ownership of your own mini-program
• Calm under pressure and able to calm those around you
• Stamina to keep up (literally) with 4-12 yr. olds bursting with energy and creative potential

Benefits
