Volunteers with Children Everywhere Florence Koenderink

'Volunteers with Children Everywhere', the 3rd book in the Children Everywhere Series, gives information and support to people who are thinking about volunteering in children's homes abroad. Part 1 helps you make sure you make the right decisions for your situation, that you are prepared as well as possible for what you can expect and what you will need. Part 2 explains some of the things you will encounter once you arrive and get to work and gives advice on how to avoid certain pitfalls to make sure your well-intentioned help does not do more harm than good. And because most volunteers do not have childcare experience, Part 3 gives a mini crash-course in childcare. The aim is to both make your volunteering experience pleasant and to make sure the children will really benefit from it.
