Durham, N.C. – Welcome Baby Family Resource Center, a Durham County Cooperative Extension program providing free parenting education and support to families with children from birth to age 5, seeks childcare helpers. Child care helpers are needed to hold babies and engage pre-school children in reading and play activities while their parents attend classes, workshops and other Welcome Baby offerings. 

Welcome Baby depends heavily on assistance from volunteers.  Day and evening volunteer opportunities are now available. Bilingual volunteers are especially needed.
