Company Description
Sprouts is a nonprofit that teaches kids from all socioeconomic backgrounds what REAL food is all about. We do this through hands-on cooking with REAL chefs from hotshot restaurants in San Francisco, New York and Paris! With the support of Jamie Oliver and the endorsement of Alice Waters on our advisory board, we fulfill our mission through 5 main programs:
Free Classes at Girls Inc for in-need young girls
After School Cooking Classes for Bay Area students from all backgrounds
Classes and Camps on weekends and school breaks for diverse Bay Area youth
Chef-in-training Internships for at-risk young adults that want to change their lives around through a culinary career
Classes for children with special needs
We are educating and inspiring youth in the kitchen every day, thanks to the dedication of 13 full and part-time team members, 10 interns, 25+ volunteers, and 100+ local chefs.
Job Description:
Do you enjoy cooking for yourself, or want the chance to put your untapped chef potential to the test? Do you love working with kids, and being involved in your community? Make a child's birthday that much more special and share your passion for cooking with the next generation of chefs as one of Sprouts' Birthday Party Chef Instructors!
Your Role:
We are currently looking for motivated, personable instructors that are passionate about Alice Water's mission to educate kids about the importance of nutrition and cooking! You will get to work hands-on with our chef kiddos who are so excited to get cookin' with you! This position is a super rewarding way to use your culinary skills in a fun and exciting environment!
We are looking for candidates who are natural leaders, quick thinkers, and problem solvers. We hope you join us for a season of delicious food and tons of cooking with fun and energetic kid chefs!
You will be responsible for each group of little chefs, addressing safety, sanitation, and knife skills when necessary to make sure everyone stays safe and healthy. You will also be in charge of organizing the menu with the parents beforehand, coordinating ingredients with the inventory staff, and scheduling volunteers to work with you. We usually block out 3 hours for each party, to allow time for you to set up ingredients, prepare the dish, eat, and clean up afterwards. The 3 hour window does not account for the time needed to stop by the inventory space in Oakland to pack ingredients.

Ages range between 7-12
