A Day in the Life

Each afternoon, you can expect to start your day at a slow pace, readying crafts and games for the afternoon. When the bell rings, we begin program with the kids with circle or carpet time, followed by various stations that you have set up (building blocks, puzzles, dolls, snack, etc.). Between 3:30 and 3:50pm, we all head outside for fresh air, free playground play, or a structured game! At 4:30, we head inside for a quick cleanup of the day's activities. The day ends at 5:15pm.

During this time, you will be responsible for offering invisible support to the child on your case load. You will act as a regular OSC leader, however, when needed and appropriate, you will assist and guide your child so that they may participate in our program.

If you are looking to make a positive impact on the lives of children and families, we encourage you to apply for this rewarding Care Worker position.
