Hope Haven childcare.

Welcome to Chamazi village, Dar es Salaam! We are thrilled to host you at our local family house, which offers a unique cultural immersion experience, distinct from Western lifestyles. Located in a vibrant township about 45 minutes from downtown, our place is accessible via public buses, online taxis like Uber and Bolt, and motorcycle taxis.

Our community is known for its warm hospitality and friendly residents who are always willing to help. While the area is generally safe, we encourage you to stay cautious as safety is not always guaranteed.

The daycare project is just a short walk from the house, making it convenient for you to engage with the wonderful and grateful children there. Our accommodation includes private and shared rooms, allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so please request private rooms in advance due to limited availability.

We provide three meals a day, mostly featuring African cuisine such as rice with fish, potatoes, beans, and pasta. On weekends, you might even enjoy some pizza as we experiment with new recipes.

We look forward to making your stay comfortable and enriching!

We are a fun loving, easygoing, family that live beside the city of Dar es salaam at Chamazi village, 45 minutes from Dar es salaam downtown, and 40 minutes from international airport of Dar es salaam.

The life in a host family will be a motivating and fun experience. You will quickly begin to consider it your home away from home, as you are warmly welcomed and treated just like a member of the family.

We believe the support of a sincere, compassionate family within the community is essential for you to adapt to and make a difference in a new country. Therefore, we. works to cultivate strong relationships with our volunteers. With the security of a caring family atmosphere, you’ll have the confidence to make a difference through volunteering, experience the culture, and discover everything the country has to offer.

This was my first volunteering experience and it was such an interesting and enriching one! I really enjoyed getting to experience the local everyday life, learn about the culture and hear different perspectives and ways of seeing life. Everyone was very welcoming and kind, and spending time with the children was of course a big part of the experience too. I'm really grateful for my time there! 🥰🤗

Best experience of my life! I learned so much, from caring for and communicating with the children to immersing myself in Tanzanian culture. It changed me in ways I never expected. I grew so much as a person and I'll never be the same again. I can only recommend this project! I made bonds that will last a lifetime. Elina is an amazing host, so welcoming and kindhearted. Joseph is the best friend you never knew you needed, it wouldn't have been the same without him! The teachers have the most beautiful souls, they're so great at their jobs & the children are the best in the world! Love y'all <3

My experience at the home Child Care has been absolutely incredible. I had such an amazing time. The children have been absolutely wonderful, and so have all the teachers. This is an experience I will never forget, and honestly, I truly believe it is one of those experiences that changes your life and leaves a lasting impact on you. A huge thank you to Elina for making this incredible experience possible, and to Mama Alia, Madame Sabrina, Joseph, and everyone else for always making me feel welcomed and appreciated.❤️

My experience at the Heaven House Childcare was incredible. A way to fully immerse yourself in the local culture, getting to know all its aspects. The school children are wonderful, always energetic and affectionate. I will never forget their faces and their smiles. Thanks to the collaboration with the wonderfully skilled teachers Mama Alijah and Madame Sabrina, I was able to actively contribute to the teaching and education of these children, with a heart full of joy. Thanks for the warm welcome to Elina, Joseph and the whole family! <3
