Assistant in Boll (8 - 12 hours per school week)

What you can achieve with us

You accompany and support a child with blindness in everyday school life in collaboration with our specialist and the teachers on site. This enables the integration of the child in kindergarten and relieves the teachers. Specifically, you accompany and support the child, for example, in social contacts, playing, work organization, learning processes, and everyday kindergarten life, e.g., on the way to the gym, changing clothes, 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 objective. Our task is to promote and support people with special needs from birth to young adulthood.
We offer additional services to parents, teachers of public schools and special primary schools, as well as professionals. Our core competencies lie in the promotion and support of young people with visual impairment, blindness, multiple disabilities, or from the autism spectrum.
