Your mission is to contribute to the child, promote education, ensure a proper physical, emotional, and social development, and assure the beneficiaries, tranquility and satisfaction.  This children’s center has kids between the ages of one month to 6 years. It emerged as a place where the children of working parents could have a place to be educated, have friends, and feel comfortable. Some of the children come from single parent families who would struggle without the help of the day care center.

Typically, the day care centers are filled with children in the surrounding areas from different backgrounds, ranging from low to middle class. What families are charged depends on household income.
The day care center is located in Santa Barbara de Heredia. It is a nice quiet place with a lovely park and people are very relaxed. With the bus you can get fast to Heredia center, to all bus stations in San Jose to get to the beach.

The following are some of the volunteer’s responsibilities:

  • Taking care of small babies and children
  • Helping with kitchen duties
  • Attending to children
  • Creating activities and entertaining the children with games and songs
  • Teaching Basic English, hygiene, and spiritual values
Holidays:
4 weeks holidays from middle of December till middle of January.
