Voluntary work as a nursery school teacher 

During your work as an volunteer teacher in nursery schools you will look after the children, take care of their needs, play with them, teach them. Some nursery schools also take care of young babies. The help of volunteer teachers is highly appreciated and urgently needed.

The work in nursery schools requires a great deal of self-initiative and organizing ability. Professional staff usually is overwhelmed with work and so there often is too little time left for a thorough training of our volunteers.
