Roles & Responsibilities
Your overall aim and purpose is to provide a safe, stimulating and caring environment for children aged 3 months to 12 years. This means you'll be designing a varied programme of age-appropriate activities for the children in your care, ensuring they get outside wherever possible!
Our guests are handing over their most precious possessions to you, and they will require and appreciate your excellent organisation and communication skills while their children are in your care. Your duties will involve liaising and communicating effectively and regularly with parents, and with other members of the childcare and resort team, to ensure that all aspects of the daily childcare programme run smoothly.
There may be daily drop offs or collections at ski school to undertake and organise.
There will most certainly be snacks and food on the agenda! So you will need to provide (which may involve planning, preparing and cooking) nutritious lunch time dishes and snacks for all ages.
Health, safety and organisation are front and centre of what we do, so it's imperative you keep accurate records for all children in your care, and refer to individual information regarding their general care and dietary requirements.
In the unlikely and unfortunate event of an accident, you will be required to remain calm and administer First Aid if needed.
Finally, flexibility is key! All members of resort staff are required to pull together to provide a seamless service for our guests. We would expect you to work as a team and be prepared to assume other duties not ordinarily in your job spec, in order to get the job done.
