Job description

Neilson Early Years Leaders primarily look after infants and MUST have accredited education for this. 

A leader, a grafter, and a holiday fun maker! This sums up our Children's Club Team. They lead from the front and are always willing to get stuck in.

The kids' club team is loud and proud and is one of the biggest teams in our resorts, combining a whole host of different personalities. It's all Go-Go-Go! The kids are full of energy, and so is our kid's club programme.

You will spend a lot of time jumping in and out of the pool or the sea, so you will need to be confident in the water. You'll be able to think on your feet and take on whatever gets thrown your way. Usually, this is paint, chocolate, glitter, or all of it simultaneously!

Early Years Leaders work with kids of all ages as part of the central Kid's Club team. However, as soon as our infant guests arrive, you'll step in to provide their weary parents with some well-deserved holiday chill time.

We are looking for people who love working with kids of all ages. Working on the Kid's Club Team is a full-on role. You'll need bags of energy, but if you've got what it takes, you'll enjoy an incredible summer in the sunshine, ensuring our younger guests have the best holiday ever.

  • A big personality + loads of stamina, energy and a huge sense of fun.
  • A passion for an active lifestyle and the desire to inspire the children to get stuck into our activity programme.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.

  • Strong organisational and time management skills.

  • The ability to work well, independently, as part of a team, and to maintain effective working relationships.

What you do

  • Create and deliver a brilliant daytime/evening activity programme for children aged from 4 months to 17 years old.
  • Ensure all activities are fun, engaging, and age-appropriate for each of the individual children's clubs.
  • To make the best use of the environment and equipment available.
  • Keep the crèche, clubrooms, equipment, and toys clean, well-maintained, and sterilised where applicable.
  • Create a child-friendly environment, ensuring the highest health and safety standard is adhered to.

  • Speak with parents/carers daily, and always encourage an open line of communication covering each child's individual requirements/routines.
  • Organise appropriate snacks and meals for the children.
