Children's Activity Support - Group Helper (Gold Community Partnership Surestart (Developmental Programme for 2-3 Year Olds))

Barnardo’s is committed to providing ‘Better Outcomes for More Children’. Our children’s services volunteers help the charity to deliver essential services in local communities, providing support to over 300,000 children, young people and their families. This role provides a great opportunity to join our fantastic children’s services and help make a real difference.

Our volunteers will provide support to the staff, children and families working in our Developmental Programme for 2-3 Years Old. We are looking for volunteers with a passion for making a difference to a child’s life and supporting their learning as well as helping children promote their independence. Some of your activities will include planning and organizing small group activities, setting up the group and clearing away afterwards. This will include serving snack as well as ensuring the resources/room is ready for the children coming into the setting. You will also be assisting the children to develop their independence thus improving their self esteem and self confidence. You will also be a positive role model at all times to the children, adhering to the policies and procedures of Barnardo's/Gold Community Partnership Surestart.

We are looking for volunteers, with a passion for making a difference in children’s lives, a fun and approachable attitude and an ability to engage young people in worthwhile and enjoyable activities.
