Where a Career Becomes a Calling

Becoming a lifeguard teaches a lot about responsibility for yourself and others and will provide personal growth, teamwork skills, self-confidence, and more! Our lifeguards are serving their community while working to make the world a safer place, one pool and day at a time! Lifeguarding is a great first job, summer job, and our flexible work shifts make it an ideal part time or second job!

Free Lifeguard Certification!

 
The YMCA of Greater Boston provides GRATIS lifeguard certification through the YMCA of the USA (over a $300 value). This certification is valid for 2 years and includes Basic Life Support/Adult and Pediatric First Aid/Emergency Use of Oxygen. These are important safety skills to have for both in and out of work and provide excellent personal growth and professional advancement!
