Baby and Preschool Swimming Teacher

We're looking for extraordinary people to become part of the Water Babies family and inspire our next generation of swimmers. You don't need to have any previous experience either, training will be provided at every turn.
We know that to see the face of a child that has just managed to accomplish something for the first time is worth its weight in gold. Being a Water Babies teacher is a physically and mentally demanding job but you get so much back from it in return. As a team, we have great fun and work extremely well together - because we care about each other and we'll support you through thick and thin.

As a Water Babies teacher, you're helping babies and pre-school children reach their full potential as part of our world-class swimming program. Good teachers can deliver compassion when support is needed, companionship when a friend is needed and just the right boost that our little ones need to reach their next big milestone in life. But most importantly of all, the lifesaving skills that we teach at Water Babies have helped to prevent tragic accidents time and time again. Interested? Read on.
