Kindergarten volunteer, Cordoba, Argentina
Your help is needed here, volunteer at this kindergarten!
On this project you’ll be able to put all your love for children to help kids in Córdoba to grow up in a healthy and loving environment. You’ll also be helping the teachers. You think one child is a handful: can you just imagine how it is like to handle 10 to 15 of them in one room, all at one time? Yes, that’s exactly what a regular day is for a kindergarten care giver and why this project needs you!
You’ll be assisted by the regular staff and other volunteers that have been working there for some time so you will learn a lot about how to deal with such young babies. They need constant attention so when you volunteer it’s good if you know yourself to have a lot of patience and fondness for children.
On top of the direct work with children, it takes a lot of preparation before the kids arrive. There is a lot going on behind the scenes and you can contribute with that too! If you love children this is the perfect project for you since you’ll be able to assist the teacher with any planned and not-so-planned tasks. Working with children, one day is never like the next. As a volunteer the staff will welcome you to help them taking care of the children, playing and preparing activities for them. Your main task will be to provide love and affection but also to challenge the kids with different early education toys.
You need to be prepared!
There are so many things you can do to keep them entertained! By playing with them you’ll help them to develop their listening skills and expand their verbal communication skills. The smallest thing is a learning process for them. For example, by asking kids to clap during a song learn how to beat time audibly to rhythm during singing and recitation. We bet you’re feeling excited already!
Many children come here so they will appreciate an extra hand. You don’t need to be savvy on the matter all you need to do is help in any way they need to and the staff will be happy to teach you. Early stimulation and having an unconditional source of love and attention are the most important thing a child needs to grow as a healthy person. By being there you’ll be helping the children channel their problems and address them and their mothers to have free time to work and make a living. They will feel relieved to know that their children are taken care of by someone so sensitive as you.
This project demands a lot of patience and dedication but will also give you an unforgettable experience to take with you everywhere! Besides, being in a different country you’ll be getting immersed in a new culture and understanding it feeling like a local.
