Om programmet

This volunteer project in Quito is aimed at local low-income families. Hoping to create a better future for themselves and their children, families from indigenous communities sought refuge in Ecuador's capital. Unfortunately, this goal is often still a distant dream and the lives of many families in the state capital have worsened. Many parents work full-time in markets outside the city center and can not provide all-day care for their children. So that the infants and children (0-6 years) are not left unattended on the market premises or at home or even on the street, there are loving and caring day care center to take care of these children.

The main purpose of the facilities is to ensure that the children's physiological, psychological and educational needs are met. The local caregivers get involved every day to create a friendly and caring environment despite the lack of resources and staff. Helping hands are always needed to provide the children with sufficient care.

Many volunteers are especially touched by the simple circumstances that children come from, who often just need a hug and a little bit of attention to be happy. Be aware that in this project you also come into contact with difficult family situations. Nevertheless, or just because of that, volunteering with children can be very fulfilling. Sometimes you do not have to give much to open their little heart and get back her sincere thanks. Get involved with children from difficult circumstances and bring happiness into their everyday life with your love.

Note: Volunteers are requested to bring games or learning materials if possible. It is not important that these are particularly expensive, but rather it is about providing the children with more alternatives to existing learning material and give them distraction. In Quito you can buy games or handicraft material at low prices.

Typisk dag

You will be assigned to a daycare center in Quito, where you will help with daily tasks. As part of the staff, you take care of the children and organize activities. You play, paint and sing songs with them; teach basic mathematics such as simple arithmetic; train them in hygiene and give them other important skills and abilities. Since physical activity is especially important for development, organizing and conducting sports, gymnastics, and outdoor activities is also part of your job. Inside the facility, you will help feed the youngest and maintain the facilities.

For this project, it is particularly important that you bring initiative and creativity to make the day-to-day life of the day care center stimulating with new, animating games and activities.

The volunteer project aims to give the children not only the care they need, but also teach them values ​​such as respect, tolerance and charity, as well as illustrating the benefits of learning. So, always be respectful and responsible, and be aware of your role model for the children.

Your working hours are flexible and you discuss your "work plan" directly on site with the day care center and the volunteer coordinators in Quito. Please keep in mind that the funds of the day care center are limited and they count on your help.


​Note: The tasks may vary. They depend on factors such as number of volunteers, season, current needs of the project, as well as self-motivation. Not every volunteer may be fully involved in all these tasks.

With its rich pre-Columbian history, the capital of Ecuador was founded on the ruins of an Inca city, and nowadays offers everything a modern traveler may need. Quito remains one of the best preserved historic city centers in Latin America and UNESCO declared it a world heritage site. This huge city stretches over a fabulous Andean valley surrounded by volcanic peaks. Among its streets, you can find 40 churches and chapels, 16 convents and monasteries with their respective cloisters, 17 squares, 12 convent and refractory courtyards, 12 museums and innumerable beautiful patios.

Just 33 kilometers north of Quito is the Middle of the World, the place with the line that divides the planet earth in the northern and southern hemisphere.

Further north, an hour's drive from Quito, is Otavalo, the largest indigenous market in the world. To the south, about a hundred kilometers away, you can visit Latacunga and the Cotopaxi National Park, with the very high volcano of the same name. Further south the cities of Ambato and Baños are worth a visit, with the spectacular view of the Tungurahua volcano, which can be climbed to the top.
Especially Baños is real fun place to visit due to countless of sports and adrenaline activities.

South America Inside is an intercultural management agency, founded back in 2003, which specializes in the promotion of programs abroad, language travel and educational programs throughout Latin America.

Since 2007, to enrich the experience of our global-minded clients and to provide them with even more possibilities, South America Inside has been expanding their program offerings throughout South and Central America.

Working together with some of the best language schools in Latin America, South America Inside provides high quality language courses in almost every Latin American country.

Thanks to a professional team of motivated and friendly staff, South America Inside has been very successful over the past several years and have been able to establish an outstanding network of what we call "Insider Contacts." To enrich the experience of their clients and to provide them with more possibilities, South America Inside has been expanding our program offerings throughout Central and South America, in addition to our well-established Chilean programs.

Volunteer Work

Do you dream of staying abroad while doing something positive? Are you looking for a unique experience that will leave a mark on your life? Then a Volunteer Work program in South America or Central America is perfect for you!

With South America Inside you can combine an adventure abroad with social commitment, and create lasting memories in Latin America. Support the protection of endangered species; help a local community construct new homes; give new hope to impoverished children.

The possibilities to lend a hand are diverse, as there are the many places where help is needed. We have classified our volunteer projects in different areas so you can easily find the one (or more!) projects that best match your needs and interests.

Why with us

There are many persuasive reasons that speak in favor of South America Inside when it comes to selecting your perfect provider of language, study and volunteer travel abroad. Following, we have prepared a short summary so that you can get us to know a little better.

Our Insider benefits at a glance:

  Regional Experience
Over one decade (established in 2003) of dedication to language, work and study travel programs in Latin America. Thanks to our long standing work and life experience in the South American continent, we know this region really well. Therefore, we can help and inform you in a professional and competent way.

  Multifaceted Offers
Over time we have developed new programs to offer a wide array of work abroad opportunities to our clients. We have been pioneers in launching new exchange programs, as we have been the first in offering Work & Travel/Working Holiday and Farm Stays in Chile and successfully introduced these programs into the market back in 2005. Since 2012, we are the only agency to offer this type of program in Costa Rica.

  Insider Advice
Despite living in the modern era of the internet, we know that reliable and competent advice is still an important criterion for most of us. At South America Inside, you will find the benefits of an internet provider and an independent travel agency. We will be glad to pass on our extensive knowledge and regional experience.!

  Location
It is difficult to run programs when there is nobody “on the ground” to evaluate existing options and search for new opportunities. So, we are located in Chile, on location, and we know everything that is going on first hand. We know what it is like to live as a foreigner in South America and will be happy to assist you in making your stay unforgettable!

  Independence
South America Inside is an independent provider of language courses, internships, volunteer work, Farm Stays and Work & Travel programs in Latin America. We neither depend financially nor structurally on any other company, language school, association or organization. Therefore, we are able to give personalized information in accordance to your needs and availability.

•  Multilingual Team

Our team is multilingual and international! We speak fluent English, Spanish and German, as well as some French and Portuguese. With our customers, we can communicate in their native language and we avoid misunderstandings with local partners by communicating in Spanish with them. You can be sure that there will be an English-speaking contact person for you before, during, and after your stay.

  Customer Service
Excellent customer service is one of the most important goals for South America Inside, and this is evident with the positive feedback we regularly receive from our many happy clients. Emails are answered within 48 business hours and every client is treated with the same friendliness and expertise.

  Gapless and Accurate Information flow
With South America Inside you will have one and the same contact person before, during and after your trip. With that said, we guarantee a gapless and accurate information flow and you will always be very well informed.

  Approved Program Places
Many of our program places, especially in the area of internships and volunteer work, are designed in the way that they will be recognized by most universities, colleges or academies.
