Description
We need your help with our Baby’s Best Start program! Baby's Best Start is a nine week program that works together with parents and family members to ensure baby's get off to the best possible start. Program sessions are on Saturdays from 9:45am-2pm. Childcare is offered during these sessions, and we are in need of volunteers to assist with a variety of tasks while the sessions are taking place. Volunteering activities include:
- Spanish translation
- Assisting with dinner
- Leading themed activities
- Reading with one child or a group of children
- Assisting the group session facilitator
You can choose to volunteer for one or all of these activities. The children that you will be working with are typically ages 2-8.
This opportunity is perfect for someone who identifies with at least one of the following:
- You love working with children,
- You have an interest in early childhood development,
- You have an interest in parenting and/or supporting parents be their best selves,
- You have a passion for literacy,
