Typical Itinerary
All new volunteers start in the clinic. In general, most people begin volunteering from 8:00 a.m–4:30 pm or 12:00–8:30 pm. Your first few days there are good opportunities to learn basics and ask questions. From this point, as responsibility and experience increase, your shifts will change to helping open a shift (6:00 a.m–2:30 p.m) or close a shift (3:30 p.m–12:00 a.m). We have also incorporated an overnight shift (9:30 p.m–6:00 a.m) that you may be scheduled on; this is a shift dealing primarily with feeding babies. If you stay long enough you may be trained to work within other areas of the centre.
