St. Clare’s Homes for Children in Neptune, New Jersey is looking for volunteers to work directly with the children in our care. Volunteers are expected to give a few hours of their time on a weekly basis. This is a requirement because it is important that the children have consistency in their schedules. Many of the children that enter our care come from unstable home environments. Stability is very important to all children but extremely important to children in crisis.
Some tasks the volunteer might be engaging in on a weekly basis is playing with the children, planning activities, holding, feeding, or even changing infants, and even on occasion taking the children on outings with staff.
Requirements
Must be at least 18 years old
Must be willing to get a background check
Must be willing to have immunizations
