Talking about everything - The Children's Helpline (Tilburg)
Do you have a genuine interest in the world of children? And do you want to do something that really matters? Help out at De Kindertelefoon in Tilburg!
📞BEING ABLE & ALLOWED TO TALK ABOUT EVERYTHING
De Kindertelefoon is the place in the Netherlands where children can talk in confidence about subjects that they cannot, dare or do not want to discuss in their own environment. Every day from 11:00 to 21:00 they can call and chat for free and anonymously about everything that concerns them. For example, about parents who are getting divorced, feelings of insecurity, being in love or a home situation that is not pleasant.
As a volunteer, you offer children a listening ear. You help to increase their (self) insight, so that children learn to trust their own strength. And sometimes you provide information or guide them to specialist knowledge and help.
📍PRACTICAL: TILBURG & FLEXIBLE PLANNING
For our "call room" in Tilburg we are looking for volunteers who can work one shift per week of an average of 3 hours. You plan your shifts flexibly yourself and then choose a shift of 2, 3 or 4 hours. Whatever suits you best that week.
✨SOMETHING FOR YOU?
Working as a volunteer at De Kindertelefoon suits you if you:
... can put yourself in someone else's shoes, have strong communication skills and dare to ask for help.
... can quickly switch between completely different conversations: one moment you are chatting with a child about an unsafe home situation, the next moment a child calls who is nervous about his or her speech.
... really seeks contact with a child. And if a child calls with a joke, you can laugh about it and go along with it. And sometimes you discover that there is another question or story behind it.
...are capable of (self)reflection and are open to receiving and giving feedback.
...are open-minded, curious, reliable and involved.
ARE YOU ENTHUSIASTIC?
That's great! Then we can tell you a lot more. For example, about what De Kindertelefoon asks of you, what you can expect from the training and how you can register. Respond to this call, then you will receive more information from us.
