Summary

Do you want to share your home with your family in a practical and everyday way once a week with families who need some support?

Detailed description

Neighborhood families in Wageningen is looking for families who want to share their home in a practical and everyday way with families who need a helping hand.


What are you going to do?

As a support family, you become the support and refuge for a demand family in the field of raising the children for a longer period of time. What support you offer as a support family and how much time you invest in it depends on the agreements you make with the requesting family. This can vary from occasional overnight stays to childcare on fixed days of the week. And from babysitting to doing something fun together with the kids. So tailor-made. The support a support family provides can also change over time.


Who are we looking for?

Experience with education, the will to mean something to children in the neighborhood who are struggling and the time to invest.


What do we have to offer you?:

The Neighborhood Families coordinator supports both the support family and the requesting family in the process of searching and connecting.


What makes the work worthwhile?:

As a support family, you share what is going well for you. A demand family experiences air and support because the task of parenting is shared and you are not alone.

What volunteers need

🗣️ Native language skills

About Buurtgezinnen

Neighborhood families is an initiative based on an old idea: we do parenting together. Families who are struggling (demand families) are linked to a warm and stable family in the neighborhood (support families). This way children get some extra love and attention and parents are relieved for a while. The help is everyday and friendly. Demand and support families make agreements about support under the supervision of the Neighborhood Families coordinator.
