Assistant in Roggwil (18 - 26 hours per school week)

What you can achieve with us

You accompany and support, in collaboration with our specialist and the teachers on site, a child with severe visual impairment in everyday kindergarten life. This enables the integration of the child in kindergarten and relieves the teachers. Specifically, you accompany and support the student during play and craft situations, in social situations, and for example on the way to the gym, when changing clothes, during forest mornings, or during breaks. 

You enjoy and have experience working with children and have an interest in educational and blindness-specific topics. You are empathetic, responsive to others, and can express yourself very well in German. You have manual skills, are used to working with different people, and remain calm even in hectic situations. A strong sense of responsibility and the willingness to further educate yourself in blindness-specific issues complete your profile.

We are the Foundation for Blind and Visually Impaired Children and Youth Zollikofen - a private, politically and denominationally neutral organization with a non-profit purpose. Our task is to support and accompany people with special needs from birth to young adulthood.
We offer additional services to parents, teachers of public schools and special elementary schools, as well as to professionals. Our core competencies lie in the support and accompaniment of young people with visual impairment, blindness, multiple disabilities, or from the autism spectrum.
