We are looking for caring and enthusiastic volunteers to provide childcare while parents participate in ESL courses. Volunteers will engage children in a dedicated room equipped with toys and supplies. This is a wonderful opportunity to support families as they work toward self-sufficiency and integration. Volunteers should enjoy working with children and be committed to creating a safe, welcoming environment. Background checks are required for all participants. By offering your time, you’ll help parents focus on learning while ensuring their children are well cared for in a positive space. Tuesday and Thursday evenings for approximately 1 to 1.5 hours each day, January through March.
