Childcare Placement in Seoul

During your Volunteer  Childcare project, you will be assisting at a local daycare centre, supporting children aged 6 to 12 through fun and engaging educational activities. Your focus will be on helping them improve their English in an interactive and supportive setting. While your main role will center round language learning, you’ll also participate in creative projects, games and daily care routines. You should be flecible, adaptable and prepared to contribute around 4 to 6 hours per day, depending on centre need and weekly schedule.

Seoul is a city where old traditions and modern life come together. You’ll see beautiful temples and busy shopping streets, peaceful parks and tall buildings. During your time as a volunteer, you’ll live in a quiet and safe neighbourhood, giving you a chance to experience local life while still being close to all the exciting places in the city.

About the Accommodation

You will stay in a shared volunteer house. The house is clean, safe, and comfortable. Rooms are shared with 2–4 other people and are single-gender. If you prefer a private room, it may be possible depending on availability.

The house has shared spaces where you can relax and meet other volunteers. There is a living room, kitchen, WiFi, and laundry facilities. Bedding is provided, but you will need to bring your own towel.

Food Arrangements

You’ll receive three meals a day on weekdays (two on weekends), featuring a mix of Korean and Western-style dishes. Meals are home-cooked and may include rice, vegetables, meats, soups, and traditional side dishes such as kimchi. Vegetarian diets and other requirements can be catered for with advance notice.

Facilities

There are cafés, restaurants, and convenience stores just a short walk from the guesthouse, as well as access to pharmacies and ATMs within 5–10 minutes on foot. A nearby subway station connects you directly to central Seoul and popular areas like Hongdae, Myeongdong, and Insadong – making weekend adventures easy and affordable.

Your accommodation provides the ideal base: peaceful, welcoming, and well connected to everything the city has to offer.
