Summary
5-week online Preparation Course, involving self-study and attendance of weekly tutorials via Zoom on Thursday evenings 18:30 - 20:30.Detailed description
We are looking for caring and committed people to attend our volunteer preparation course and who can commit 2 to 3 hours a week to support a family in their own home, where nurturing support is delivered to provide compassionate, emotional, and practical help to families.
Support may include:
- Parental and child well-being,
- Help for parents to attend local parent and toddler groups,
- Healthy eating routines,
- Sleep Routines
- School readiness
- Financial wellbeing.
Our volunteers must be non-judgemental, friendly, empathetic, compassionate, and good listeners. No experience is necessary, you just need to care.
We offer ongoing free training throughout your time with Home-Start Norfolk to help build your knowledge, which you can use for future employment or to progress your career.
