What you give the child
Safety, attention, a predictable adult they can trust. A clear standard of care you hold every moment of the shift.
What you get yourself
Hands-on experience with children, a structured role, practical tools, and a place in a team that runs a tight program.
What's expected of you
Readiness, punctuality, ownership of your group, and a professional standard that stays consistent from morning wake-up to evening check-in.
