GYMBOREE TEACHERS & SALES ASSOCIATES– LAFAYETTE, OAKLAND, & EL CERRITO

LOOKING FOR A JOYFUL JOB IN A GREAT ATMOSPHERE? Are you charismatic, playful, musical and great with infants, toddlers, pre-schoolers and their parents? Do you take pride in offering good customer service? Gymboree Play and Music is hiring part-time teachers and front desk sales associates. Applicants should be willing to teach and help out at the front desk. Weekend and weekday positions are available.

Gymboree teachers lead dynamic adult/child interactive classes that build children’s cognitive, social and physical skills. Designed by experts in child development, each of our 7 class levels focuses on and supports the developmental milestone of children.

Background of our ideal candidate includes:
- Strong customer service skills
- Ability to sing in tune (you don’t need a perfect voice)
- Love of teaching and interacting with parents and children
- Group facilitation skills
- Playful and energetic teaching style
- Ability to learn and teach detailed pre-made lesson plans
- Theatre experience is a plus!

There is flexibility in the assigning of work schedules for those with other existing commitments. However, consistency in working assigned shifts is essential. Employees may be assigned to shifts at one or more of these locations based on their availability and our open shifts. These are year round positions and we like candidates to commit for 1 year.

We are a customer service driven company and are looking for employees that will go the extra mile for our customers. You must be enthusiastic as you lead your classes and build relationships with our families. The role of a teacher requires you to lead parent discussions, sell products and manage the enrollment process. While we do not cold call or pressure sell, selling our classes and products is an important part of the job.

We offer a competitive salary, commensurate with relevant experience. Benefits include partially subsidized health insurance (at 20+ hours/week, after a waiting period), company discounts and free classes for your child.

Respond by email to lafayetteca@gymboreeclasses.com. Be sure to tell us why you would be a good Gymboree teacher. Also include days that you are available to work.. Ability to work any of our 3 sites is a plus.
