Our Baby Gear Processing volunteers play a critical role in ensuring that all baby gear that we distribute to families meets our quality standards for cleanliness and safety. Volunteers will work in our warehouse and report to the resource staff lead, and be supported by the volunteer coordinator. If you care about sustainability, want to support local families, and if you enjoy the satisfaction of a transformation, this is the perfect volunteer opportunity for you! Impact of this role: Approximately 95% of baby gear that BabyGoRound distributes annually is gently used. Last year, 66,800 lbs of pre-loved baby gear was diverted from the landfill, thanks to our community of donors and volunteers. Our gear processing volunteers keep this circular system going round - checking, cleaning, and preparing critical baby gear to be passed on to the families who need it most. This circular approach of collecting and connecting pre-loved baby essentials is more than an exchange; it’s a cycle of care that benefits our planet and people. Key responsibilities and duties include:&nbsp;<ul>	<li>Assisting gear donors in unloading the donations from their vehicles and bringing them into the warehouse.</li>	<li>Cleaning baby gear, including but not limited to: strollers, pack and plays, bassinets, high chairs, and exersaucers. This is done using various tools onsite, including a vacuum cleaner, steam cleaner, laundry sink, and washing machine.</li>	<li>Checking baby gear equipment to ensure it meets current safety requirements: checking condition, functionality, proper assembly, and that all parts are in place.</li>	<li>Helping to keep the gear receiving and processing zones orderly.</li></ul> Desired skills and traits:&nbsp;<ul>	<li>Enjoys problem solving</li>	<li>Experienced and comfortable using your&nbsp;hands (assembling items, cleaning)</li>	<li>Has a strong attention to detail</li>	<li>Doesn’t mind getting a little dirty</li>	<li>Enjoys working independently and taking ownership of their responsibilities</li>	<li>Ability to lift 25 lbs independently, or 40 lbs with assistance</li></ul> Accessibility: BabyGoRound can be accessed at street level through both the front and back doors, though the back entrance is down a steep slanted driveway. Both floors are connected by one flight of stairs. Support:&nbsp;We strive to create a welcoming and supportive environment! During your shift, staff will be available to assist you, answer questions, and provide guidance. You will have written guidelines to refer to regarding instructions for processing baby gear, important baby gear safety considerations, and a binder of recalled baby gear. Commitment and Availability:&nbsp;Our volunteer opportunities offer a lot of flexibility, allowing you to adjust your schedule week to week. We are looking for reliable volunteers who can commit to a minimum of 2, 2.25 hr shifts/month for 1 year. Volunteers should also have availability during our operating hours: Monday-Thursday between 9:45am-2:30pm. Additional Requirements: All onsite volunteers are required to complete a Criminal Record Check (CRC) for work with children and vulnerable adults. Instructions for how to complete a CRC will be shared with you following the submission of your application. The CRC will be free to you as a volunteer.

various ways by caring for their siblings or providing personal, emotional, or financial support. 
 
We collaborate with community partners to bring specialized programs and expertise to 
professionals and organizations across Canada, giving them the tools they need to positively 
impact children, youth and young adults. 
 
Looking Forward 
Our vision is to see young caregivers and their families recognized, supported, and empowered 
in Ontario so they are all able to achieve their full potential.
