After-school activity leader in French

Search for animateur périscolaire, animatrice enfance, animateur ALSH (accueil de loisirs sans hébergement), animateur cantine or, in the public sector, adjoint d'animation. Activities for groups of minors are regulated: accueils de loisirs must employ a minimum share of qualified staff. The BAFA, a non-professional certificate open from age 17, is the usual entry point. Professional qualifications include the CPJEPS and the BPJEPS Loisirs tous publics, and the BAFD for directors. Many posts are part-time with split hours, so check whether the town offers additional hours on Wednesdays and holidays. Employers check criminal records, and you need enough French to supervise children and talk to parents.
