Excited to be a Childcare volunteer in Kenya? International Volunteer HQ’s Childcare project empowers volunteers to assist in early childhood centers, community centers and kindergartens. These centers can be overcrowded and underfunded so the extra help volunteers can give is highly valued. Volunteers gain experience teaching and caring for young children and support local staff so they are better able to focus on providing quality care and education.
Kindergartens in Kenya can have classes of between 15 and 100 children at any one time and are often under-resourced with a genuine need for support. As a result, there is a high demand for energetic volunteers who enjoy children and can keep up with the fast-paced atmosphere at these placements.
As a Childcare volunteer in Kenya you can expect to help out with the day-to-day operations in a range of preschools, daycare centers and kindergartens. Each center caters to children of differing ages, however, you will typically work with children between 1 and 6 years old. The children love interacting with volunteers and will be sure to keep you on your feet. Volunteer duties can vary but often include:
School holidays 2025: Please note, this project is not available during the school holidays.
