Aquatic Instructor - Pre-schoolers & Neurodivergent Children
Are You Amazing With Little Kids? We Need You!
We want the preschool teacher who knows how to make a crying 2-year-old laugh. We want the special needs educator who understands that a child who seems "difficult" is just communicating differently. We want the patient, warm, quietly brilliant person who genuinely lights up around young children.
You don't need to be a competitive swimmer. You don't need a coaching certificate. You need to love teaching little humans — we'll teach you the rest.
Child development first. Swimming second.
We work with neurodivergent children — ADHD, autism, sensory sensitivities. We've built specialized tools for them. We don't give up on a child because they're "too difficult." We figure it out.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
- Teaching aquatic and swimming skills to babies and toddlers
- Building trust with children AND parents — both are your student
- Supporting neurodivergent children with structured, compassionate approaches
WE'RE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO
- Has preschool, kindergarten, student care or early childhood experience
- Has experience supporting neurodivergent children (strongly preferred)
- Can swim 50m non-stop in at least one stroke. You do NOT need all four strokes — that's what training is for
- Is available on weekends (Saturday mornings especially) — this is when families need us
- Can travel between condo pools across Singapore (own transport is a plus)
- Is warm, patient and emotionally intelligent with parents and kids alike
WHAT YOU GET
- $40–$50 per session — most sessions are 30–45 minutes
- Full structured training — we train you the Swim Monkey way, from day one
- A rare specialty — few coaches can teach babies and neurodivergent swimmers
- Supportive, experienced team
- Part-time first, full-time when you're ready — grow at your own pace
TO APPLY, include:
- Experience with young kids (where + how long)
- Can you swim 50m non-stop? Which stroke(s)?
- Weekend availability
- How you travel around SG
