Early Years Kids Yoga Instructor

Early Years Kids Yoga Instructor

Little Yogis Academy® \| Toronto, ON

Do you love working with little ones and believe movement, mindfulness and play can make a big difference in a child’s day?

Little Yogis Academy® is looking for an energetic, warm and dependable Early Years Kids Yoga Instructor to join our Toronto teaching team!

We specialize in bringing yoga, mindfulness and movement programs directly into childcare centres, preschools and schools, with a strong focus on children ages 2–6 years.

About the Role

This is a mobile teaching position. You’ll travel to different childcare centres and schools throughout Toronto to lead engaging, age-appropriate Little Yogis classes.

Our early years classes are playful and interactive—not traditional adult yoga! Think yoga adventures, songs, breathing exercises, movement games, storytelling, imagination and simple mindfulness activities.

We’re Looking for Someone Who:

• Loves working with toddlers and preschool-aged children
• Has experience working with young children OR a strong interest in early childhood education
• Is energetic, playful, patient and comfortable being silly with kids
• Is confident managing groups of young children
• Is dependable, professional and punctual
• Can travel to different childcare centres and schools throughout Toronto
• Has daytime availability, particularly on weekdays
• Is comfortable working independently at different locations
• Has excellent communication skills

Experience in yoga, early childhood education, teaching, recreation, dance, gymnastics, children's programming or fitness is an asset.

You do not need to be an experienced yoga teacher. For the right candidate, we can provide training in our Little Yogis Academy® curriculum and approach to teaching yoga and mindfulness to young children.

What You'll Teach

Classes may include:

• Kids yoga poses and movement
• Breathing exercises
• Mindfulness and calming strategies
• Music and movement
• Yoga stories and imaginative adventures
• Games that support balance, coordination and body awareness
• Social-emotional learning activities

Requirements

Successful candidates must be willing to obtain/provide any required screening and documentation for working with children, including a Vulnerable Sector Check.

Reliable transportation and the ability to travel between teaching locations in Toronto are important for this role.

Why Join Little Yogis Academy®?

Little Yogis Academy® specializes in bringing yoga, mindfulness and wellness programming to children in schools and childcare settings. You'll receive structured curriculum, training and ongoing support so you can focus on what matters most: creating a positive experience for the children you teach.

This is a great opportunity for an ECE, teacher, yoga instructor, recreation professional, dance instructor or anyone who genuinely lights up when working with little kids.

To apply: Please send us your resume along with a short introduction telling us about your experience working with children and why you're interested in teaching yoga and mindfulness to toddlers and preschoolers.
