Talented Writer needed for Front Desk Manager Position

Our established, beautiful children's play space and prenatal parent club in the heart of Williamsburg, Brooklyn is looking for a skilled writer to join our team!

This is a part-time position requiring flexible availability and at least 3 shifts per week commitment. Shifts are typically 8:30am-6pm or 11am-6pm with additional shift opportunities for birthday parties and events. Candidates will not be considered for the position if they aren’t available on weekends.

WHO WE ARE

We’re a stress free, membership-based indoor playspace in Williamsburg built for babies, toddlers, and their grown-ups. Think of us as an extended living room for our littlest members of the community to learn, grow, and make friends. Outside of open play, we also host daily classes, events, and birthday parties on weekends (open to both members and the public).

Our Front Desk Managers work on site, greeting members and clients with joy, warmth, and respect daily. We care about our members, and take pride in having empathy and kindness while working hard and having fun. While the role is hospitality and copywriting focused, there are other responsibilities including light cleaning, space organization, and supply inventory management.
