Little Hands, Big Hearts – Intergenerational Volunteer Program - Waratah

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.
