Are you energetic, enthusiastic, and passionate about helping kids grow? Do you love creating fun and engaging experiences for children? If so, KidStrong wants you to join our team as a KidStrong Coach! As a Coach, you'll play a crucial role in delivering our dynamic curriculum and making a positive impact on the lives of children and their families.

What You'll Do:

• Coach Like a Pro: Deliver fun, dynamic classes that boost brainpower, physical skills, and character for kids walking to 11 years old (KS is introducing SOON a new class group for babies, so you must be comfortable with babies who aren't yet walking as well!)
• Master of Curriculum: Understand the magic behind KidStrong's programs and communicate it with flair.
• Be the Best: Achieve Coach Certification and keep leveling up your skills like you're in a video game with our stellar training programs.
• Family Friend: Create positive interactions with families before, during, and after class -- you're the reason they love KidStrong!
• Class Commander: Ensure classes run smoothly and on time, every time. No tardy bells here!  (This means you are always a few minutes early for each shift and ready to ROCK each shift. We do NOT permit tardiness!)
• Family Connector: Keep families engaged and excited about KidStrong. Think of yourself as the social glue that keeps everyone together.
• Master of all: Coach class, camps, parties, parents night out events,  attend offsite events and anything else your center leaders might ask for!

Center Operations:

• Event Enthusiast: Assist in community events and center initiatives. Party planner meets motivational speaker.
• Clean & Green: Participate in the upkeep and maintenance of our awesome center. Cleanliness is next to awesomeness!

We want to hear from people who have:

• Passion for Kids: Non-negotiable. You must love working with children.
• Coaching Background: Experience with kids aged walking - 11 years old (babies is a plus!). If you've coached a herd of cats, you're overqualified and also why did you do that? :-)
• Communication Whiz: Comfortably speak to parents and guardians. Channel your inner Oprah.
• Energetic & Fun: Bring high energy and a clear, engaging presence to every class.
• Mentorship Magic: Be a mentor to other coaches, with excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• CPR Certified: Or Willingness to get it. Safety First!

Your DNA:

• Command Presence: Set the bar high and speak with authority
• Passionate: Strong love for coaching
• Mentor: Form deep relationships with KidStrong families
• Performer: Fun, likable, and a joy to be around.
• Professional: Strives for consistent excellence
• Teacher: Communicate with knowledge of our programming.

• Impact: Make a difference in the lives of children and their families.
• Growth: Opportunities to develop your skills and climb the KidStrong ladder.

If you're ready to be a superhero in the lives of children and join a team that's as fun as it is dedicated, apply now! Your adventure with KidStrong awaits!
