Early Childhood Immersion: Six Months in an English-Speaking Daycare in Hungary
Tudás-Vár Nonprofit Kft.
SOPRON, Hungary
Description
Our English-speaking daycare is located in Sopron, Hungary, close to the Austrian border and is run by three enthusiastic workmates offering their laps, time, devotion to a handful of children aged between 1,5-5. After they outgrow daycare, we offer 90-minute afternoon classes and organize summer camps to ensure they continue to benefit from a diverse and multicultural environment. If you are ready to support children's social development, understand their urge to explore the world around them and have ideas on how to bring it closer to them, please contact us! Give us six months (between August, 2026 and June 2027), and we'll feed your curiosity, creativity, and confidence.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
A 60m2 two-roomed well-furnished flat is rented for our two volunteers with a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area and bathroom. The flat is situated close to the town center, on the fourth floor of a block of flats; in two minutes the volunteer can enjoy the peacefulness of a forest. Volunteers are welcomed to have meals within the walls of our daycare, however they can also opt for preparing their own menus (lunch allowance). Volunteers receive a "household allowance" in order to cover the costs of their breakfasts and dinners, detergent etc. Bikes, SIM cards, pocket money are also provided
Training during the activity
Volunteers participate in an on-arrival and a mid-term training organized by the Hungarian National Agency. Work related, cultural workshops arranged by the daycare are also offered. Volunteers have the opportunity to learn either English or some Hungarian by using an online platform.
Participant profile
We welcome motivated, committed, active volunteers, who are willing to learn, share their knowledge and understand, respect the needs of young children. As our volunteers keep our children engaged for approx. 35 hours on a weekly base, arm yourself with patience, and an ever smile on your face:-) Some relevant work experience or education related to early childhood experience and solid English language knowledge is an advantage, however we are opened to host any volunteers.
