Do you want to make a difference in the life of a child? We do too! Our church has a long track record of serving our community by providing an educational preschool as well as school age enrichment programs. As an intern, you will receive real-world classroom experience as you co-lead a class of 12-14 students.
Positions are available for the Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters each year. We are willing to work with your school to facilitate internship credit.
While here, you will serve on a team with other college students from around the country. Your work will be supervised by leaders in the field of childcare and ministry with decades of experience. You will be loved and supported by an open minded and engaging church that cares about your spiritual formation and development.
We provide:
• $500 monthly educational stipend
• $125 monthly food money
• free housing (you’ll live one block from beautiful Lake Tahoe)
• airfare to and from Tahoe.
During my time at First Baptist I learned more about myself and God than I ever have before! I felt God’s presence daily through the amazing staff and the kids we served!! It is a once in a life time experience that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
We care about you. Our leadership team cares deeply for your personal and spiritual growth. We provide weekly Bible studies and devotions. Our congregation will invite you into their lives and into their homes. We recognize that you are the future of the church and we want to do everything possible to help you succeed!
Our internship includes full-time preschool and after-school program opportunities. In both programs, you will plan and lead daily lesson plans including Bible stories, learning activities, crafts, educational centers, and recreational games!
For our preschool program, we need students who are Early Childhood, Child Life, Child Development, or Human Development and Family Studies majors. You will need 12 hours in any combination of these types of classes to qualify for the preschool. Most 4 year degrees and some two year degrees qualify to work with our school age children.
Semester positions include four preschool and four school age positions. Summer positions include four preschool and eight school age. School age positions work with our A+ Before and After School program (K-6th) and preschool positions work with our A+ Preschool program (3-5 year olds). Between these two programs we minister to 70 – 80 children a day.
We would love to hear from you and to answer any questions you may have! Fill out the form and we’ll get back to you soon!
