Swim Instructor Jobs in Broward County, Florida

Swimingo teaches private, one-on-one swim lessons at the client's own pool, and our Florida expansion starts in Broward County. This page is written for instructors: which towns we are hiring for, what the county is like to work in, and how to apply. For the wider picture, start with swim instructor jobs in Florida.

The eleven towns we are hiring for

Weston is a planned city of gated neighborhoods where most streets in Weston Hills and Savanna back onto a lake or a screened backyard pool — a dense set of home pools within a short drive of each other. See private swim lessons in Weston.

Davie is the opposite geography: large lots, equestrian districts, and neighborhoods like Long Lake Ranches and Forest Ridge spread across a big footprint, so lessons there are worth grouping into the same afternoon. See private swim lessons in Davie.

Cooper City is an established family suburb of about 34,000 people whose week runs on the school and youth-sports calendar — weekday slots right after school pickup are the ones to keep open. See private swim lessons in Cooper City.

Southwest Ranches has one-acre minimum lots and 98% detached single-family homes, so nearly every family you teach there owns the pool you will be teaching in. See private swim lessons in Southwest Ranches.

Parkland sits at Broward County's northern edge, above Coral Springs, with gated communities such as Heron Bay and Parkland Golf and Country Club where adding an instructor to the guest list is part of the routine. See private swim lessons in Parkland.

Plantation sits in central Broward with Sunrise along its northern and western edge, and it is really two drives in one town: acre-plus lots and horses out in Plantation Acres, and closer family streets in Jacaranda and Melaleuca Isles. See private swim lessons in Plantation.

Sunrise is the town where the pool is as often a community or association deck as a backyard one — Welleby, Springtree and Sunrise Golf Village all have shared water — so expect to confirm an association's guest and instruction rules before a first lesson. See private swim lessons in Sunrise.

Pembroke Pines runs nearly 35 square miles from the Florida Turnpike out to US 27, so routing matters more here than anywhere else on this list — Chapel Trail on the western edge and the older eastern neighborhoods are worth booking into separate afternoons. See private swim lessons in Pembroke Pines.

Coral Springs is a planned city with more than fifty municipal parks, and a lot of family evenings are already spoken for around the Sportsplex — the slots that stay open are the ones close to the school day. See private swim lessons in Coral Springs.

Coconut Creek is compact — about twelve square miles — with eighteen parks, nine greenways and maintained canals running between the neighborhoods, so drives between back-to-back bookings there are short. See private swim lessons in Coconut Creek.

Fort Lauderdale is the coastal end of the county, with 165 miles of navigable waterways and as many condo and association pools as private backyards, so building access is part of the job in Victoria Park, Rio Vista and Coral Ridge. See private swim lessons in Fort Lauderdale.

What a week across the county looks like

The towns come in clusters, which is the operational reason we picked them: one instructor's route can serve more than one town in a day instead of losing the afternoon to I-75. When you apply, you set how far you are willing to drive, so you decide how much of Broward County you want to cover.

The schedule is yours as well. You choose your own schedule and work hours, and because South Florida pools do not close for winter, mobile swim instructor work here does not thin out in October the way it does in a seasonal market. Instructors are independent contractors who set their own schedules; pay is competitive, and the specifics are confirmed with you during the application rather than posted on this page.

Swimingo also takes the hassle out of finding clients. Families come to us already looking for private lessons at home, so your time goes into teaching instead of advertising or chasing leads.

Why Broward County needs swim instructors

Broward County is full of backyard pools, community lakes, and canals, which is exactly why one-on-one lessons in a family's own water fit this market. Instructor coverage is what decides where Swimingo teaches next in Broward County — towns come online as instructors join.

How to apply

The application asks about your swim instruction certifications, along with your work experience, the service area and radius you want, your preferred age groups and swim levels, and your weekly availability. Because you travel to each client's pool, you will also need your own reliable transportation.
