How young are the children that you get to work with?

The children we worked with were newborn to maybe 4 years old. I believe the program now may work with the children in a small hospital in Barlad and children in a placement center. There may be some older children in the placement center. Send me a facebook request and I can share some photos. Dan Niedbalski

Global Volunteers advise the children are from 0 to 12. You may not work with that entire age range when you're there, I've usually worked with younger children, 0-6.

The children vary in age from small babies to around 10 years old (from my experience). Most but not all have disabilities. They rotate about 10 children from the orphanage for about 2 weeks at a time to stay in the hospital, so you never know which children will be in the hospital when you visit. Hope this helps!
