After-school Childcare (Arlington, MA)

We’re looking for help after school for our two boys (ages 4. 5yrs and 6.5yrs), and we need care M-F from 2:00-5:00. If you’re only available for some of those days, we’d still love to hear from you. The hourly rate ranges from $30-$35/hr depending on experience. 

We both work from home, and we live in a 2-family house in Arlington. My in-laws live on the first floor and often take one of the boys on an adventure so most days you’d only have one child.

The boys love being outside, riding their scooters, playing Magnatiles, and building with Legos so we’re looking for a loving and fun person to spend the afternoons with them. We hope that person is you!

If you’re interested, please reach out to Bridget at bridgeoconnor@gmail.com

Library Workshop (Medford)

 University College is looking for people interested in hosting a 1 hour workshop for middle schoolers at the new Medford Public Library on Wednesdays.

All volunteer opportunities are from 1-2pm EST, located at the Medford Library (111 High Street). At least one member of the University College Team will be assigned to each date, and will coordinate with you ahead of your chosen date.


Student participants are in grades 5-8. We will cap the sessions at 50 students (we expect 30-50 to attend), but the room capacity is 100 – so there is some space to spread out. The room has projector/audio, flat floor, long tables and chairs.


Ideally, workshops are as hands-on as possible, but with minimal supplies. Examples include: 

  • A session on social media/marketing where students sketch their own social post
  • An engineering session where students make paper planes and learn about aerodynamics
