Summer Camp Youngest Camper Counselor Lead - San Diego
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.
Job Requirements
- At least 18 years of age
- 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.
