Job Description
Little Hands, Big Hearts – Intergenerational Volunteer Program
Bring your baby, toddler, or child along for a beautiful morning or afternoon of connection and kindness!
Join us in aged care to spend meaningful time with our wonderful elderly residents. Children attend with a parent or guardian and help create moments of joy through smiles, simple crafts, singing, storytelling, and gentle conversations.
* Morning Session: 10:00am – 12:00pm
* Afternoon Session: 1:00pm – 3:00pm
Interacting across generations builds empathy, confidence, and social skills in children — while bringing companionship, laughter, and renewed purpose to older adults. These shared moments brighten days, ease loneliness, and create memories that last a lifetime.
Come share giggles, stories, and heartwarming connections. Together, we can make a difference — one smile at a time.
Your impact
Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience, both for the person you visit as well as yourself. Regular visits from volunteers can help to improve quality of life and help people feel less isolated.
HammondCare is an independent Christian charity and we're passionate about improving the quality of life for people in need.
HammondCare is a provider of The Aged Care Volunteer Visitor Scheme funded by the Australian Government and is established to promote links between elderly people and volunteers in their local community.
