Over het programma

Guatemala is a developing country that needs as much help as possible. Help shape the future of our world by spending some time with children that will benefit from your care and teachings. INLEX works with daycares from low-income neighborhoods near of Antigua Guatemala where resources are very limited. Daycares benefit from the work of volunteers, as most of the time they are understaffed or underfunded.


  • People who dedicate time and energy at a daycare center have an opportunity to make an important difference in the lives of children. This voluntary role requires hard work, but it is rewarding for people who enjoy interacting with children and guiding them as they grow and learn. 

  • The childcare program is perfect for volunteers that are energetic,full of initiative and creativity. The work is rewarding, fun and a great experience. If you have previous experience with children or education you can help implement new games or strategies to keep the kids learning throughout the whole day.

  • Availability: All year, except from Mid-December to Early January. 

  • Minimum commitment: 4 weeks.

  •  Location: Neighboring towns around Antigua Guatemala.

Over de organisatie

Integrated Learning Experiences was founded in 2005 by former Peace Corps staff that wanted to provide flexible volunteer programs with a positive impact.

Ontmoet je organisatie

Integrated Learning Experiences’ (INLEX) mission is to strengthen human resources in Central America and South America through volunteer programs, educational travel and internship opportunities.

In addition to this, INLEX provides opportunities for students and professionals to further gain experience in their field of choice by matching participants with the best opening available.

We work towards:

  • Sustainability in the projects and communities that we work in.
  • Programs that promote cultural exchange.
  • Safe and affordable programs.
  • Strengthening and empowering communities.
  • Authentic experiences for our participants.
  • Facilitating education.

INLEX was set founded by former Peace Corps staff in Guatemala in 2005 who wanted to provide flexible programs for volunteers in Central America. This flexibility allows our participants the option to commit for as long as they want in the area they are best suited to support; creating a positive impact and a rewarding experience. We do this because we believe in the principle that every volunteer can make a difference.

Many years and happy people later, we continue working with key partner projects to develop communities in the Latin American region.

I had an awesome time in the day care center for children from 0 to 6 years in Zaragoza. On my first day everyone was welcoming me very warmhearted. Even though I was obviously nervous I felt very well right from the beginning. Everyone was interested in where I come from and why I want to spend 10 ...
