Camp Supernow Counselor
THE ROLE
As a Counselor at Camp Supernow, you’ll be joining our small but mighty crew of experience designers, social alchemists, innovators, vibe creators and facilitators - dedicated to bringing magic and connection to kids everywhere.
As a Counselor, you’ll work directly with the Supernow founders to facilitate magical experiences that bring kids together. Super Counselors are the face of Camp Supernow - this is a highly visible role and an opportunity to become part of a community of best in class gatherers and experience designers. This role is about more than just having experience in childcare or education, it’s about bringing joy, enthusiasm and fun to kids through hands on play.

This role is perfect for someone who:
- Has prior experience with children, ideally ages 5-11 (camp counselor, childcare professional, educator, babysitter)

- Is passionate about hands-on, play-based learning
- Lives to perform in front of an audience (of both kids and parents)
- Believes that human connection is the next self care and wants to help spread love and connection during a time of separation
- Has fully embraced their inner child - lives for play, adventure, fun and silliness.
