Kidstrong Alabama

KidStrong is a science-based kids training program that builds strong, confident, high-character kids. We do this in weekly, 45 minute developmentally-appropriate classes. Each class includes unique science-based fitness games led by highly trained, kid-focused coaches.

ROLE & SCHEDULE -

We're looking for energetic, motivated individuals with an athletic, coaching, or child development background who are passionate about helping kids grow. Ideal candidates have experience working with children from crawling through 11 years old and thrive in a fun, fast-paced environment. As a KidStrong Coach, you'll lead high-energy classes focused on developing children's cognitive, physical, and character skills through our evolving, science-based curriculum. You'll also build strong relationships with parents by confidently explaining the "why" behind what we teach and how it supports their child's development. Classes are held weekdays from 9:00-11:00 AM and in the evenings until 7:00 PM. Weekend classes begin at 9:00 AM and run through lunchtime. Additional opportunities to increase your hours are available through camps, birthday parties, and special events.
