Job Details Location:

16601 N Pima Rd., Scottsdale, AZ 85260

Camp Hours:

6:30am - 4:30pm (actual staff shifts will vary, and hours on the final camp day may be extended) 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. Additional Responsibilities

+ Do you appreciate and agree with our self-directed approach for kids?

+ Would sparking up conversations with staff, campers and parents fit in your comfort zone? If it is out of your comfort zone are you willing to grow in this area?

+ Are you a self-starter excited at the idea of taking ownership of your own mini-program?

+ Are you comfortable navigating challenging and sometimes sensitive interactions?

+ Are you the type of person who can't rest until you've done everything possible to make someone feel cared for? Like, if someone you knew was in need, would you do more than send them a "thinking of you" text?

+ Are you calm under pressure and able to calm those around you?

+ Do you have the stamina to keep up (literally) with 4-12 yr. olds bursting with energy and creative potential? And, if needed, can you bench press the equivalent of a kindergartner (just kidding - can you lift up to 40 pounds)?

+ 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)

+ By applying and accepting an offer, you are giving Steve & Kate's permission to email or text you.

+ You may be asked to chaperone campers on an off-site Field Trip where locations demand. Steve & Kate's Camp and Bright Horizons comply with all laws that require reasonable accommodations for qualifying disabilities and/or pregnancy-related limitations. The full set of physical requirements for this role are as follows:

+ Maintain and follow all safety and health rules of the location.

+ Organize and maintain clean and accessible activity spaces.

+ Assist in camp set-up and breakdown during move-in and out weekends.

+ Stand for long periods while supervising children and facilitating activities.
