Children's Dance, Fitness & Entertainment Instructor (Contractor)
Central Coast, NSW | School Hours
Imagine getting paid to sing, dance, tell stories, perform magic tricks and make children laugh - all while helping them build confidence, coordination and a lifelong love of movement.
That’s exactly what our Happy Feet Fitness Instructors do every day.
Happy Feet Fitness is looking for an enthusiastic instructor to join our Central Coast, NSW team as an independent contractor, operating your own Happy Feet business with the support of our experienced State Manager.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants the flexibility of running their own business during school hours while making a genuine difference in the lives of preschool children.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll deliver our award-winning, play-based movement program to babies, toddlers and preschool-aged children (0-5 years) in early childhood education and care centres.
Every 30-minute class is an exciting adventure, combining:
- Music, movement and dance
- Imaginative storytelling and role play
- Magic, puppets and engaging props
- Fundamental movement skills and fitness
- Games, laughter and active play
- Age-appropriate educational themes that support children’s development
No two classes are the same - one moment you might be leading a dinosaur adventure, the next exploring outer space, going on a jungle safari or diving under the sea.
About the Opportunity
You will be taking over a handful of existing classes around Woy Woy and Gosford and work alongside our experienced NSW/ACT State Manager to develop relationships with early childhood centres throughout the Central Coast area, building towards a regular schedule of 15+ weekly classes across 3–5 weekdays during school hours.
Business development and relationship building is a core part of the role, so please be aware of this when applying.
Income
- Earn an average of $75 per 30-minute class (after licensing fees)
- Income grows as your schedule grows
- No guaranteed minimum income, as you will be building your own client base with our support
We’re Looking For Someone Who
- Loves working with young children
- Is energetic, confident and comfortable performing
- Has excellent communication and relationship-building skills
- Is self-motivated and business-minded
- Holds a current Working with Children Check
- Has a reliable vehicle and is happy to travel between centres
- Has an ABN or is willing to obtain one
Why Happy Feet?
For nearly 20 years, Happy Feet Fitness has been bringing movement, music and fun to children across Australia. We provide comprehensive training, ongoing mentoring and proven systems, so while you’re running your own business, you’ll never be doing it alone.
Please note: This is an independent contractor/business opportunity, not an employee position. You will operate your own Happy Feet Fitness business under licence and work with your Manager to build your regular class schedule.
