Child Care Volunteer

Child care volunteers assist our childcare staff with direct care for the children that stay at the Crisis Nursery. Childcare volunteers will never be alone with the children. A Primary Child Care Provider will always be present with the volunteer.

Child care volunteers complete an application, submit to a background check, and participate in orientation and training before starting. Volunteers must be 21 years of age or older.

Seasonal Organizing and Inventory

Ivy House receives many wonderful donations of items from the community. To keep them easily available, we invite volunteers to come to the house and organize them for us.  Work includes switching out clothing as the seasons change, tracking number of supplies in stock, and assisting with moving season appropriate clothing to our bedroom closets. If you like to organize, this is a great job for you!
