Volunteer Stay and Play Leader – Huncote Family Hub

This role is required at Huncote Family Hub in the Blaby area of Leicestershire. You will be required to volunteer for 2.5 hours per week on a Wednesday morning. Arriving at 9.30am you will set up the room with activities for babies and pre school children and toddlers. At 10.15am you will welcome local families to the hub and engage them in the activities provided. Activities can include art and craft activities, outdoor play, a sensory and baby area, story and rhyme time, messy play and much more. All activities are planned around the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) providing opportunities for children to learn through play. You will provide information to the parents and carers attending about other local groups and support they can access. All training and guidance will be provided. Expenses are also provided and for those with young families or caring responsibilities you can bring your children with you whilst you volunteer.
At the end of the session, at 11.45am you will put away activities leaving the room/spaces clean and tidy ready for the next group that will be using the hub. This role is an excellent stepping stone for anyone wishing to move into a career in childcare, support or social work or simply wanting to give time in their community to children and families, make friends, build your skills and get experience in the workplace.
