Summary

Volunteer(s) needed to help run our playgroup on the first Friday of every month at Knebworth Village Hall.

Detailed description

Our friendly playgroup for families with twins/triplets is in need of new volunteers to help us keep running. With all our attendees having 2 (or more!) babies it's crucial that we have one or two extra adults to help out. Our sessions are 10am - 11.30am on the first and third Friday of each month at Knebworth Village Hall, and we particularly need help for the first Friday sessions. DBS would be preferable but not absolutely crucial.


What does it involve?

  • Helping set up the hall from 9.45, and clearing up until 11.45am.
  • Put out fresh supplies of hot water, biscuits etc for the parents through the session and go round offering them to mums who can't get to the hatch themselves. Prepare the snack plates for the children.
  • Offering a hand or just an ear to chat when our parents need it. This might be watching on baby whilst the other one is changed, entertaining a toddler whilst their sibling goes for a wee, or just listening when someone's had a bad morning.


In return we can offer baby cuddles, toddler giggles and a chance to make some lovely new friends amongst our regular attendees. Parenting two or more babies can be exhausting and isolating and we aim to give our families a friendly, welcoming environment that makes it as easy as possible to get out with their twins in tow. If you would be willing and able to make a monthly commitment to support our club, or you have any questions, please get in touch!

About Stevenage & Knebworth Twins Club

We are a friendly group run by and for families with twins and more in Stevenage, Knebworth and the surrounding area. We run a playgroup for babies and preschoolers at Knebworth Village Hall twice monthly. As all our parents have two (or more!) very young children to look after we rely on support from other adult volunteers to help us run these sessions.
