Workcamping With Children

Sara
(Texas)





Are there work camp positions that allow children? I have two children -- a 3 year old and 5 year old. I will be full timing with them and will need to work -- something where they can be with me while I work. Anyone done this or know if it is possible? Thanks!

Working RVers With Young Children


Yes, it is possible to work camp or otherwise work while RVing with your children.

Here are some options that come to mind for working with young children in tow:

1. Look for a job at a children's camp. Enroll your children in the program so that they are cared for and entertained while you are at work.

2. Work from your RV. Depending on your skills, you might be a virtual assistant, sell things on e-bay, design websites, or make jewelry that you wholesale to vendors. Or, choose one of the literally hundreds of other home-based businesses suitable to run from an RV home.

3. Look for a job that requires that you complete certain duties, rather than one that requires set work hours.
Workamping with Kids


The best positions I have found for volunteer positions with kids is camp hosting and restroom cleaning. I have done both, with 3 kids, ages 3, 4, and 8 at the time, and was able to take them with me while I cleaned. State parks are very understanding when it comes to small kids.
Glacier NP Inside Park


Just a thought Glacier NP vendors has a couple employers that may work for you that hire many positions. They have folks that may babysit and they miss there grand kids. Educational for the kids. One is the Cedar Tree (Lundgren's) and Glacier Park, inc. Best of luck! Hope to see you up in Glacier.
Work with Children


I home school, and I wanted to keep busy so I started driving a bus, or mini bus or suburban for the school district.
Most let your children ride along. Perfect!
This only works if you have a cdl license in that state. But you can work seasonally in that state. Seems theyre always looking for bus drivers!
I love my job . No one told me it would be so rewarding. Good pay too. If I knew it was this good I would have done it years ago!
Other places are home day care places. Part time assistant.
Teaching a class at the park district, teaching a class after school for a chess club, painting club, kids lego or engineering.
