They are getting paid. They can't afford to pay you? Look for volunteering that helps people who can't afford childcare. If we are talking about patient care technicians who have school age children who are home unsupervised, then you are doing valuable volunteering but if you are looking after a doc's kids, itis hard to justify as needed volunteerism.

Yes, it mostly involves support health care staff that cannot afford nannies or babysitters. I have a nonclinical volunteer experience already ongoing, but it was put on hold for now.

idk like is the deciding factor srsly "i'll only do it for the app" rather than "i really can offer a helping hand to ppl who need it so i want to do this" 😵

Not if it's for friends or family members.

It’s through a formal program at my school. It would not be with anyone I personally know.
