Abstract

Volontiranje je radni doprinos svake pojedine osobe koji se temelji na upornosti,
motivaciji i slobodnoj volji pojedinca. Volontiranjem se može baviti bilo tko, a postoje razne
aktivnosti i poslovi koje osoba može raditi. Jedna od aktivnosti je volontiranje u vrtićima kao
pomoć odgojitelja. Mišljenja o potrebi uključivanja volontera u vrtiće različiti su kod roditelja,
odgojitelja, studenata ranog i predškolskog odgoja i stručnjaka. Zbog toga je cilj istraživanja bio
ispitati mišljenja odgojitelja o volontiranju prije završenog fakulteta. Istraživanje se provodilo
web anketom u Google obrascu te je trajalo prvoj polovini 2022. godine.
Prema mišljenju ispitanih odgojitelja, velikoj većini je prihvatljivo uključivanje volontera
u rad u vrtićima prije završenog fakulteta. Isto tako dominantan je odgovor da je osoba koja
volontira punoljetna i da prođe edukaciju iz prve pomoći i psiho-test. Nakon edukacije testiralo
bi se njihovo predznanje.
Volonteri se moraju pridržavati kodeksa oblačenja odgojitelja, nošenja kute, papuča i
poštivati pravila higijene. Volonteri mogu imati tetovaže i na vidljivom djelu tijela te ih tijekom
obavljanja volonterskog posla ne moraju sakrivati. Smiju pomagati i brinuti o bolesnoj djeci
(dnevne bolesti) i djeci s teškoćama, ali nemaju ovlasti prenositi dnevne informacije i podatke
roditeljima. U pogledu aktivnosti koje bi volonteri obavljali su: igra s djecom, hranjenje djece,
oblačenje djece i izrada materijala za rad. U pogledu ovih aktivnosti, mišljenja odgojitelja su
različita, tako je mišljenje da o uključivanju volontera ne odlučuju roditelji, već djelatnici vrtića.
Mogućnost volontiranja u vrtićima bi bilo poželjno da se omogući zbog premalog broja
odgojitelja na prevelik broj djece.

Abstract (english)

Volunteering is the work contribution of each person based on the persistence, motivation and
free will of the individual. Volunteering can be done by anyone, and there are various activities
and jobs that a person can do. One of the activities is volunteering in kindergartens to help
educators. Opinions on the need to include volunteers in kindergartens differ among parents,
educators, early and preschool students and professionals. Therefore, the aim of the research was
to examine the opinions of educators about volunteering before graduating from college. The
research was conducted by a web survey using Google Forms and lasted until the first half of
2022.
According to the surveyed educators, the inclusion of volunteers in kindergarten work before
graduating is acceptable to the vast majority. The dominant answer is also that the person
volunteering needs to be an adult and that he / she must undergo first aid education and a psychotest. After the training, their prior knowledge would be tested.
Volunteers must adhere to the code of dress of educators, wear coats and slippers, and follow the
rules of hygiene. Volunteers may also have tattoos on a visible part of the body and do not have
to hide them while doing volunteer work. They are allowed to help and care for sick children
(daily illnesses) and children with disabilities, but they do not have the authority to give
information to parents. The activities that volunteers might perform are playing with children,
feeding children, dressing children, and making materials for work. In terms of these activities,
the opinions of educators are varied. The prevailing opinion is that the involvement of volunteers
should not be decided by parents, but by kindergarten staff. The possibility of volunteering in
kindergartens would be welcome due to the lack of professional educators.
