As a Children's Volunteer, you'll help our kids (ages birth-12 years) feel welcomed, safe, and "at-home" at the Nursery. Our kids love to play games, read stories, create art, and get lots of snuggles! They also love being rocked to sleep and need comforting if they're feeling sad. Volunteers are welcomed any day between 8 am-8 pm, and we ask that you commit to a weekly shift with our kids. Opportunities are available in St. Louis City, North St. Louis County, St. Charles, and Wentzville.

If you'd like to apply to become a Saint Louis Crisis Nursery - Children's Volunteer, or if you have any questions, please let us know. We look forward to welcoming you to the Nursery!
