What is a Covid camp?

A Covid Camp, sometimes referred to as a quarantine or isolation camp, is a facility set up to house individuals who have been exposed to or tested positive for COVID-19. These camps are designed to prevent the spread of the virus by separating affected individuals from the general population until they are no longer contagious. Covid Camps typically provide medical care, food, and monitoring to ensure the health and safety of residents. They have been used especially during outbreaks or in areas where home isolation is not possible. The goal is to contain the virus while supporting the needs of those in isolation.

What are some common challenges faced by staff working in a Covid isolation camp, and how can applicants prepare for them?

Staff in Covid isolation camps often face challenges like managing high-stress situations, adhering to strict infection control protocols, and supporting individuals who may be anxious or unwell. Applicants should be prepared for long shifts, frequent use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and the need for clear communication with healthcare teams and residents. Demonstrating adaptability, empathy, and a commitment to safety will help you succeed and make a positive impact in this fast-paced, team-oriented environment.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Covid camp healthcare worker, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Covid Camp Healthcare Worker, you need a background in healthcare (such as nursing, paramedicine, or allied health), knowledge of infectious disease protocols, and relevant certifications like BLS or ACLS. Familiarity with PPE, patient monitoring equipment, and electronic health record systems is typically required. Strong communication, resilience, and the ability to work under pressure are essential soft skills in this role. These skills and qualities are vital to ensure patient safety, effective care delivery, and infection control in challenging and dynamic environments.

While both roles support COVID-19 response efforts, Covid Camps are broader in scope, involving site management, whereas Covid Testers specialize in testing procedures.

Job Overview

We are seeking a compassionate and experienced Camp Counselor - Mandarin Immersion to join our team at the Terra Schools and Terra Camps. You will play a critical role in creating a positive, emotionally safe, and enriching environment for our campers, ages 3 to 10.

You will be responsible for developing and implementing curriculum, working collaboratively with other camp staff, and ensuring the safety and fun of all campers. The successful candidate will have strong communication skills and a commitment to providing a fun and safe environment for all campers.

We are a multilingual private school and camp that combines small class sizes, whole-child development, and nature-based learning.

We have two locations for camp. Terra Marin is located in Mill Valley, just north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Terra San Francisco is located in the Outer Richmond District of San Francisco, just south of the Golden Gate Bridge. During outdoor Earth Education days, we visit nearby scenic green spaces. If the outdoor location is more than walking distance from the school, we provide a shuttle for both students and teachers.


Our work environment includes:

  • Growth opportunities
  • Diverse and international workforce


Job Responsibilities

  • Oversee safety and instruction of youth ages 3-10 during weekly nature programs.
  • Maintain a happy environment for all campers.

What’s Unique About Us

  • Language Immersion. We believe young children are capable of learning a second and/or third language. Bilingualism & trilingualism also helps them develop empathy and cognitive skills, as well as an appreciation for diversity.
  • Reggio Emilia-inspired. Our children are center stage. Their interests and passions drive the topics discussed in class, while teachers facilitate their cognitive, social, and emotional skill acquisition.
  • Nature-based Learning. At least once a week, children explore the outdoors through both open-ended and guided play to cultivate their sense of wonder and curiosity.


Why work with us

  • Small Class Sizes & Ratios: We offer ratios that are smaller than those found in traditional camps and childcare centers (up to 8:1 student-teacher ratio). This fosters stronger and more intimate connections with children, families, and fellow educators.
  • Holistic Child Development: Our project-based, Reggio-inspired curriculum, outdoor classroom, and social and emotional learning curriculum are centered around nurturing the multiple intelligences of each child.
  • Diverse & Inclusive Community: Learn from a diverse and inclusive group of fellow educators, students, and families who value kindness. Over half of teachers and students are multi-ethnic, a third of families receive scholarships, and a third have lived abroad.


Perks & Benefits

  • Competitive pay rate ranging from $18 to $25 per hour, based on experience and location.
  • Federal holidays and weekends off.
  • Opportunity for professional growth, including potential advancement to be a Camp Director or After School Program Director.
  • Covid-19 Safety: Free daily access to covid tests, masks, and hand sanitizer.
  • Free parking for employees in our parking lot and on the street.
