LOOKING FOR A JOYFUL JOB IN A GREAT ATMOSPHERE?

GYMBOREE PLAY & MUSIC of Encino is seeking a FABULOUS TEAM MEMBER who offers world-class customer service with a GREAT attitude!

Are you outgoing, energetic, charismatic, playful, musical, silly, and great with infants, toddlers, preschoolers and their parents? Are you great with Customer Service? Are you a mom or dad looking for part-time work while your children are in school?

At Gymboree, we take a playful and active approach to learning. We know that playing and learning are inextricably linked and our "whole child" approach helps children to build strong motor and social skills that better prepare them for school, all while having fun! Parents and/or caregivers attend classes with their children ages newborn to five years as they explore unique songs, play instruments and games.

There are 3 core programs:

• Play & Learn classes include age appropriate play activities on our custom designed play equipment, songs, parachute play, and bubbles.

• Music classes involve instrument activities, singing, dancing and exploring a variety of music styles from around the world. Candidates do not need to be able to read music or play instruments - just be rhythmic!

• Art classes offer hands-on, process-oriented activities including painting, sculpting, and collage making, in addition to movement activities and songs that support different art themes explored.
