Preschools in Lima can act as one-stop shops for children aged between 3-5 years old. Volunteers work alongside local teachers in what can often be under-funded environments, helping out wherever it’s needed. Tasks can include helping with play time, supervising, preparing materials, bathroom breaks, organizing activities and any other needs that may arise. Work will be more varied in school holidays in July and August, where volunteers can also expect to be helping out at a two-week school holiday program. Volunteers are not required to speak Spanish, though the Lima program also includes access to discounted Spanish language lessons, which we recommend taking advantage of.

It’s way less scary when you get there
by: Kailee JobeProgram: Volunteer in Childcare in Peru - LimaMy volunteer trip showed me that everyone, no matter their age or education is at a different place in their life. We have more than enough time to achieve anything you’d want. It also showed me how possible traveling while volunteering can be if you do it right and with the right intentions. It’s way less scary when you get there, everyone is secretly scared to some extent too. The people in your house are there to help and support you. It feels much less lonely and scary immediately after you ...
My amazing time in the Childcare program in Lima, Peru.
by: Ashley M - United StatesProgram: Volunteer in Childcare in Peru - LimaI first volunteered with IVHQ in 2016. After my first experience, I knew that I had to do it again. I chose to travel to South America this year, specifically Lima, Peru. Going in, I had no real expectations except to go in with an open mind and an open heart. My time in the childcare program was unbelievable. I got to interact with teenage moms, their babies and the staff. Everyday I went into work feeling so blessed and excited to share my skills but also to learn new skills from the girls. Ev...

I will never be the same
by: Marcades - BowmanvilleProgram: Volunteer in Childcare in Peru - LimaGoing to Lima, Peru put a lot into perspective. The orphanage experience had an incredible impact on my life. I would recommend volunteering abroad to anyone any age. It is a great work to experience new things while at the same time making a positive difference. If its even a blimp in your mind, just do it and make it happen! Thanks IVHQ for helping me make it happen
Hi Marcades, No problem! We are glad that your 2 weeks volunteering in Peru - Lima was such a positive experience. We hope to see you back on another IVHQ program at some point soon.
