Childcare Supervisor Cornerstone

Come and join our team! We’re looking for long term Staff member to Supervise our Childcare Centre.

Soort vacature: Vrijwillig

What is Cornerstone?
Cornerstone is a WEC Missionary Training College in the Netherlands. Situated in a small village near the border with Germany. We have a vibrant community life with approx. 40 students and approximately 20 staff plus children joining us each year to be prepared to share the Gospel cross-culturally. Our students come from all over the globe and live together in the college as a wonderful international community. Each year we welcome families with children to join us.

Our Childcare Centre (CCC)
Our CCC cares for children of students and residential staff here at the college. It is open from 9am-12:40pm Monday - Friday morning (for 1-4-year olds) and 2.30pm-4pm Wednesday and Friday afternoons. This allows our students and staff to participate in the study programme and running of the college. We typically have around 10 children each year attending the morning sessions who, like their parents, are an international mix! A typical morning session involves independent play, a story time and singing, playing outside in our playground areas and craft activities.

In your role as a Childcare Supervisor you would be responsible for overseeing the good function of the CCC. This involves helping the volunteers with learning and practicing good skills for tending to the children as well as the facilities. They generally need to learn to teach and care for the children, set up daily programs and to work in a small team with other volunteers. This also means looking out for the general well-being of these volunteers. Good safeguarding procedures need to be assured in the CCC functions according to guidelines established by the college. The Supervisor is also the primary contact person with the parents of children who are in the CCC.

As every resident of the college, the Supervisor is expected to be involved in the Cornerstone community life - attending morning chapel times (worship, teaching, prayer and guest missionary speakers), participating in lunches, coffee times and other events, leading or being part of a care group, and helping out around the college in practical ways.
