wellcome - SUPPORTING FAMILIES WITH BABIES AND CHILDREN IN EVERYDAY LIFE

Volunteering for families
The first few months after the birth of a child are a big challenge for all parents. Despite the joy of having a baby, for many families the normal madness begins at home after the birth: the baby cries, nobody does the shopping, the sibling is jealous or the partner is not yet on parental leave. With the wellcome - practical help after the birth service, we support parents who want relief during this time, especially when other helping hands are missing. Our volunteers support families in a practical and uncomplicated way.

Do you enjoy working with babies? 
Are you looking for a flexible commitment?
Are you reliable and open-minded?
As a wellcome volunteer, you give mothers and fathers a little break in their everyday lives. This allows parents to recharge their batteries so that they don't lose sight of the most important thing - the joy of their child! Give young parents a good start to family life. As a wellcome volunteer, you can help in a very concrete way: taking a walk with the baby, playing with the sibling or accompanying the mother or father to the pediatrician. And it's very flexible: you meet the family once or twice a week for 2 - 3 hours for 3 - 4 months. Then the next family is already looking forward to it. No special qualifications are necessary, as you will be well supported by your team coordinator.

A special professional qualification is not necessary, as you are well accompanied. A wellcome team coordinator provides professional support for the assignments and is a reliable contact person at your side.

1 - 2 times a week for 2 - 3 hours for a limited period of time

Further training and qualifications on the topic of family and baby, as well as regular meetings and exchanges with other volunteers from the team. 
You are of course insured and your travel expenses will be reimbursed.
