Here from some of our team about what they think of working with Kirby Swim

"Kirby Swim for me is just like a big family, you’re welcomed at every shift with happy faces. They want you to reach your goal with teaching and being the best teacher you can be. Your teaching children even adults a life skill which is so rewarding and no two days are the same at Kirby Swim, as a mum of 2 young children i didn’t want a 9-5 job so that’s why swim teaching works so well for me. Kirby give you so many opportunities and so much room to grow and that’s why i love working for the Kirby Swim Family. "

"I really enjoy working at Kirby Swim Karrinyup, as helping children develop their self-confidence and a love for the water is something I'm really passionate about. Being able to support them and help them grow in a safe environment is so crucial for a positive swimming experience, which I feel lucky to be a part of!”

"Kirby Swim is a great place to work and teach at. The team promote a welcoming, inclusive and positive environment which brings out the best in all the staff, leading to the delivery of quality swimming lessons. I would recommend Kirby Swim for any aspiring teachers.”
