My work as volunteer. Please read and correct, thanks in advance I work as volunteer in an orphanate taking care of babies. I have 8 years working there. These babies were abondened for theirs mothers, maybe in hospital, as soon as they born, the mother left them; or in the parks, or they are abused, etc. We receive them with 1 month or 2 months and take care of them until they get 3 years, then they go to another “home” with older children. The goal is they were adopted when babies, but sometimes there are problems with it because the Ministry of Women (here in Peru it is called like that) delays with the papers of the babies and with no papers, no adoptions. Also depends of the Minister and their politic in her job, If she is a concient women, she wants to hurry up the burocratic job and the adoption could be carry on. I’m enchanted with the work because is just give love, as volunteer I have to make a conection with them, hug, kiss, pamper, cuddle. There are another persons to work there but their work is clean, doing beds, change diapers, give them a bath and things like that. I’m a playful person so I play with them a lot, they follow me in all my plays, and for me it is very pleasent look theirs happy faces, also I usually sing to them all the time. When they are whashing hands, eating, bathing, and sort of. They looooove play and sing, even if they dont speak well, the repeat the last sound of they heard. For me is a land of fantasy, I try to make them happy and they live in a fantasy world, because they are babies now, maybe when they grow up they understand that the live is no easy. But maybe they remember a happy childhood.
