Spring Break Field Trip Camp Counselor - Westchester
About The Position
At Steve & Kate's, we put radical trust in kids so that they learn to trust themselves. Our Field Trip program honors that philosophy by exposing campers to activities and spaces that awaken their curiosity and passions. We value empowering our staff to be their whole authentic selves because everyone in our community needs to feel included! Sound like something you can get behind? If so, we're looking for team members who are motivated babysitters, teachers, coaches, students, athletes, artists, and anyone ready to play hard and be goofy. As a Steve & Kate’s staff member, you’ll sharpen your inherent leadership skills, learn some new ones, and collaborate with interesting people, all while immersing yourself in creativity and play. How do you know if you’re the right candidate? Does the idea of guiding kids while they make decisions for themselves excite you? Are you calm under pressure and able to calm those around you? Are you comfortable leading groups of kids on your own while still collaborating with a team? Are you passionate about sharing your knowledge & learning something new (even if a third grader is doing the teaching)?
