  Description

  Our daycare started in 2021 with a vision to offer a better foundation for children in the early years of learning. Our educational activities consist of fun and learning activities nurtured by talented teams. The school is situated in the Singida area, Tanzania, Jovena Municipality, along Mwanza Road. It offers a pre-primary education curriculum for children aged three to ten, and the aim is to develop a child’s competencies that will enable him/her to learn successfully in primary school and other levels of education.
  
  We are seeking volunteers who can socialize with our kids at school. The volunteers can support and encourage learning activities in the school because children aged 0-10 learn primarily through joyful activities that strengthen their curiosity and desire to learn.
  
  While in Tanzania, you'll have the opportunity to explore parts of Tanzania's beautiful country tourist attractions. Singida is mostly known for its two Rift Valley lakes, Lake Singida and Lake Kindai. Both lakes attract thousands of Flamingoes. Some of the activities volunteers can do while in Singida include visiting Museums, Hiking, and bird-watching Museums. We will work with you to plan the areas and activities you would like to participate in and places to explore while in Tanzania.
  
  I am a compassionate, patient, and dependable child care specialist with 2+ years of expertise in developing quality care plans and coordinating child care programs. I exhibit the communication required to build strong families and entertain children with engaging activities. I am also a mother of two lovely children and I am dedicated to ensuring children's well-being and safety and committed to establishing effective communication with parents.
  
  Volunteers are valuable resources to us. We will create an environment for you to easily develop personal, emotional, and professional connections with the community. We will endeavour to have activities that will create a sense of belonging for you to have a positive and enjoyable atmosphere.
  
  If you can help us with computers/web development, marketing, social media or any creative project you are the most welcome!
