Job Description

The Little Gym is a globally recognized enrichment and physical development center dedicated to children aged 4 months through 12 years. With more than 300 locations worldwide, this franchise has established itself as a premier destination for physical, social, and emotional growth through movement-based learning and imaginative play. Founded over four decades ago, The Little Gym has continuously evolved to provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can build confidence, develop new skills, and experience the joy of achievement through a variety of programs encompassing gymnastics, dance, sports preparation, camps, and specialized events like Birthday Parties and Parents Survival Nights. Each location is independently owned and operated by franchisees, ensuring personalized community engagement while maintaining The Little Gym's core values and proven curriculum.

The role being offered is ideal for individuals who love kids, enjoy staying active, and have a passion for creating memorable experiences for children and their families. This position involves leading or assisting in birthday parties and special events using an established teaching method that the staff is trained in. The candidate will be responsible for fostering a warm, fun, and educational environment that makes both children and their parents feel welcome and valued. Customer service is paramount, as the company prides itself on treating every family like part of their own. This role is active and dynamic, offering the chance to move, engage with kids, and create positive memories daily. It is perfect for high school or college students looking for flexible weekend hours, non-morning shifts, or anyone who wants a career-like experience that is also fun and fulfilling. The job allows employees to dress comfortably in athleisure wear, combining work with play in an atmosphere that rewards enthusiasm and positive energy with tips and recognition.

The Little Gym team values individuals who are fun-loving, approachable, and reliable, able to balance playfulness with responsibility.
