Children's Activity Leader - Luxury Beach Club in Greece - Summer 2026
Seasonal Contract | May - October 2026 | Zakynthos, Greece
About The Peligoni Club
The Peligoni Club is a family-run members club on the beautiful island of Zakynthos, Greece. Our children's programme is designed to be lively, imaginative and full of adventure - giving young guests the chance to play, explore and make friends while their parents relax.
We run sessions for a range of age groups:
* Crèche (4 months – 3 years) – a calm, nurturing space for our littlest guests
* Rugrats (4–5 years) – playful, creative sessions focused on confidence and fun
* TARKA (6–10 years) – action-packed games, challenges and outdoor adventures
* Teens (11+) – relaxed, social sessions that encourage them to meet new people, try new activities and enjoy a bit of independence around the club.
About the Role
We're looking for fun, confident and energetic Children's Activity Leaders to deliver engaging sessions for children aged 2.5 to 10, with occasional involvement in teen activities. You'll spend most of your time running activities for our older crèche children (2.5–3 years), Rugrats (4–5), and TARKA (6–10), helping them get stuck into games, challenges and creative adventures.
You will need to be comfortable supporting the crèche team during lunch breaks, which may include helping care for some of our younger crèche children (4 months–2.5 years).
You'll also take part in our babysitting programme, with a minimum of two evening babysitting shifts per week (paid in addition to your salary).
This role is perfect for someone who loves leading games, getting outdoors and inspiring confidence in children - someone who can be silly, adventurous and imaginative, while maintaining a strong sense of safety and care.
