My Treehouse Club Summer Club Programs | Kailua Racquet Club | July 13–24 (Mon–Fri)

We are looking for an energetic, responsible, and engaging Lifeguard Camp Staff member to join our Summer Club team this summer!

This is not a traditional lifeguard position where you sit poolside all day. We are looking for someone who enjoys interacting with children, leading games, joining activities, encouraging participation, and helping create exciting, memorable summer experiences while maintaining safety at all times.

Our camp includes swimming, tennis, crafts, STEM activities, lunch, and active group play. We want staff who bring great energy and truly enjoy being part of the fun.

Program Dates:
July 13–24, 2026 (Monday–Friday)

Camp hours: 10:00 AM–2:00 PM
Additional paid shifts may be available:

• Before care: 8:00 AM–10:00 AM
• After care: 2:00 PM–4:00 PM
• Prep, cleanup, and activity support hours depending on staffing needs

Full day shifts preferred, but partial availability may be considered.

• Potential opportunities to continue working with My Treehouse Club before or after Summer Club programs end, at our Kakaako location, depending on performance and overall fit

Position Responsibilities:
• Supervise children safely during swim times and water activities
• Maintain active lifeguard responsibilities and enforce pool safety procedures
• Join camp activities when not monitoring swim sessions
• Lead games, crafts, movement activities, and help keep campers engaged
• Assist with transitions between tennis, swimming, lunch, and enrichment activities
• Support before care and after care programming when scheduled
• Create a positive, energetic environment for campers
• Communicate professionally with families and staff
• Help maintain clean, organized camp spaces and equipment

Required Qualifications:
• Current Lifeguard Certification (required)
• Current CPR & First Aid Certification (required)
• Loves working with children and has a naturally upbeat personality
• Comfortable jumping into games and activities, being silly, energetic, and involved
• Able to multitask and stay alert in fast-paced environments
• Reliable, flexible, and a strong team player
• Professional, friendly, and takes initiative without needing constant direction
• Comfortable being active throughout the day, this is a highly interactive role with minimal sitting

What We Mean by “MTC Material”:
We are looking for people who fit the personality and culture of My Treehouse Club. This means someone who:

• Naturally brings warmth, enthusiasm, and positive energy
• Enjoys performing, teaching, or engaging with children, not just supervising them
• Can think on their feet and jump in where needed
• Takes pride in creating memorable experiences for families
• Is kind, professional, hardworking, and a strong teammate
• Understands that working with children means being fully present, engaged, and willing to have fun

At MTC, families come for the experience. Energy, initiative, and genuine care matter just as much as certifications.

Preferred Experience (not required but a plus):
• Camp experience
• Teaching or childcare background
• Coaching, sports instruction, or recreation programs
• Experience leading group activities for children

This position is ideal for someone who wants more than a standard lifeguarding role and enjoys being part of a team creating meaningful summer experiences for kids.

Strong candidates may be considered for future opportunities with My Treehouse Club at our Kakaako location, including classes, camps, events, birthday parties, and enrichment programs beyond the summer season.

Interested applicants, please submit following:

• Your availability (full day or partial day)
• Resume (preferred)
• Lifeguard, CPR, and First Aid certifications
• A brief introduction about yourself
• Optional but encouraged: A 30-second introduction video telling us about yourself, your experience with children, and why you think you’d be a great fit. We love getting a feel for personality and energy!

We look forward to hearing from you and finding someone excited to make summer fun, safe, and memorable for our campers!
