About this position
Overview: Child care volunteer projects in Moshi, Tansania
Child care volunteer work is very versatile – it ranges from playing with the children, doing the homework with them, helping in the kitchen or in the garden and even some small renovations.What to expect
Description: Child care volunteer projects in Moshi, Tansania
Overall, in Arusha and Moshi six different programs in child care institutions are offered in, just a small selection of the many institutions in Tanzania. Some of the projects are specialized in taking care of infants and some other projects take care of older children too. In Arusha, there is also a centre for girls and women from poor circumstances (eg. forced marriage, child labor, prostitution, etc.). Most of them have fled from home. At this point great sensitivity is required.You don't need any previous knowledge but you should have good skills in English. You should be very open and respectful and be prepared to perform a variety of tasks. Be aware that working in an orphanage not only means playing with young children. Your assistance is also needed for domestic activities and some administrative tasks.
Itinerary of your stay abroad
Volunteer abroad program
Start date of project
The volunteer projects run throughout the year. Therefore, we are open for your individual suggestion, which we are going to propose to our partner organisation.
Time of arrival
We recommend to arrange an arrival a few days prios to the start of the volunteer project. You can move in to your guest family up to 3 days before the official project start at no additional costs. You then have enough time to recover from the long flight, get to know your host family and make your first trips.
Arrival at the Airport
Arriving in a new country is always exciting. We want your arrival to be as relaxed as possible. One of the staff members of our partner organization will pick you up at the airport and bring you to your host family or your shared flat. He/she will be waiting for you at the airport with a sign with your name on it. If you cannot find a flight at the desired date, don’t worry. You can choose another one a few days earlier or later.
Orientation program
Within the first days of your arrival one of the team members of our partner organisation will pick you up and show you around. You will get to know the country and its people and you will be informed about Do’s and Dont’s. The program will be held with more volunteers at the same time. This is the perfect opportunity to get to know like-minded globetrotters. Your local contact person will provide you with further useful hints for a good starting point into a new lifestyle.
The project starts
On the first day of your project, you are usually accompanied by a member of our local partner who will answer all of your questions. The further project days your local contact person will always be available for you via phone if you have any concerns or issues to share with somebody.
Free time & weekend
The weekend is totally yours! You may ask your local contact person from our partner organisation about upcoming events, sights, shopping tips or other must see’s. On some days there will be field trips organized by our partner organization. We recommend you to join them as it is always fun to experience a new country with others.
Departure
You shall contact your local contact person a few days prior to your departure to inform about options for your airport drop-off. It will not be included in the services of the volunteer projects, but our expert will help you organize it.
