People always tell you that you're incredible with little kids. This job was written for you.
You get down on their level. You speak their language — part silly, part patient, all heart. A room full of 2-year-olds with soccer balls doesn't intimidate you. It energizes you.
That's a gift. And we're looking for exactly that.
For over 45 years, Skyhawks Sports has believed that the earliest experiences in sport shape how a child sees themselves for life. Our Tots programs — SoccerTots, BaseballTots, 1stDownTots, Multi-SportTots, and more — aren't about developing athletes. They're about building tiny humans who feel capable, joyful, and brave. The right coach at this age can plant seeds that last a lifetime.
We've been serving kids across the Treasure Valley for 4 years and we're growing. If you've spent years being "the one" with little kids — whether raising them, teaching them, or caring for them — we want to talk to you.
What You'll Do:
- Lead small groups of children ages 2–5 through age-appropriate, playful, skill-based sessions using Skyhawks' proven Tots curriculum.
- Warmly welcome and engage parents — some sessions have parents on the sideline cheering, others have them right there on the field with their child. You'll love both.
- Create an environment where even the shyest toddler feels safe enough to try something new.
- Communicate with warmth and confidence with parents before and after sessions — they trust you with their most precious people.
- Set up equipment and keep sessions safe, organized, and full of fun.
- Represent Skyhawks with pride and help families feel like they found exactly the right place.
Who We're Looking For:
- You're the person everyone says is "so good with little kids" — and you've heard it your whole life.
- You bring a natural combination of patience, playfulness, and nurturing presence — not one or the other, all three.
- You know that a 3-year-old having a meltdown isn't a problem to manage, it's a child who needs connection — and you know how to give it.
- You're a stay-at-home parent ready for a meaningful part-time role, a retired teacher or early childhood educator, a daycare or preschool veteran, or simply someone who has always known that tiny humans are your people.
- You're reliable: you show up, you follow through, you never leave a group of toddlers and parents wondering where their coach is.
- You care about more than a paycheck — you want work that genuinely matters.
You don't need a sports resume. You need a heart for little ones and the energy to match. Experience in childcare, early childhood education, preschool, or parenting absolutely counts here. Some sports background is a bonus, not a requirement.
What You'll Receive:
- $17–$19/hr (Classes) | $15–$18/hr (Camps), with a quick raise for reliability and growth.
- Paid training and free First Aid/CPR/AED certification.
- Flexible scheduling built around your life — evenings and Saturday mornings (9am–12pm).
- A team that sees your gift and celebrates it.
- The opportunity to grow into additional coaching roles and Director opportunities as we expand.
- Meaningful work you'll actually talk about — because it mattered to a child who will never forget you.
Application Questions:
- Do you have a valid Driver's License and reliable transportation?
- Which cities are you available to travel to? (Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Avimor, Star)
- Are you available for evening classes and/or Saturday mornings between 9am–12pm?
- Tell us about your background with young children — whether that's parenting, teaching, childcare, or something else entirely.
- What do you think is the most important thing a coach can give a 3-year-old?
- What is the single most important thing to you?
