Founding Social Media & Community Manager (Volunteer) for NEW BABY SHOW!
Love creating content? Passionate about social media? Obsessed with babies, parenting, and building online communities?
We're looking for one creative individual to become one of the founding members of the MYA International Pregnancy, Parenting & Baby Show—Toronto's newest multicultural baby and parenting event.
This is more than just posting on Instagram.
We're looking for someone who wants to help build a brand from the ground up, tell meaningful stories, connect with families, and create an online community that celebrates pregnancy, parenting, culture, and childhood.
If you're already the person your friends ask for Instagram advice, love making reels or TikToks, enjoy engaging with people online, and want real-world experience growing a brand, we'd love to meet you.
About MYA
The MYA International Pregnancy, Parenting & Baby Show is launching this December in Toronto.
Our mission is to celebrate pregnancy, parenting, babies, and family life through a multicultural lens by bringing together incredible brands, healthcare professionals, educators, and community organizations under one roof.
We're building something special and we're looking for someone excited to grow with us.
Your Role
As our Founding Social Media & Community Manager, you'll help shape the online voice of MYA while building excitement leading up to the show.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Creating engaging Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn content
- Scheduling and publishing posts
- Writing captions and engaging with our online community
- Responding to comments and direct messages when appropriate
- Helping coordinate Instagram Live sessions and interviews with exhibitors, sponsors, and guest speakers
- Building relationships with local parenting creators and community influencers
- Helping grow awareness of the show across diverse cultural communities throughout Ontario
- Brainstorming fresh content ideas and creative campaigns
This is a collaborative role where your ideas won't just be welcomed...they'll be encouraged.
Time Commitment
Approximately 1–2 flexible hours per week, working remotely.
As the event gets closer, there may be opportunities to become more involved if your schedule allows, but the weekly commitment is intentionally designed to fit around school or work.
Who We're Looking For
This role is perfect for:
- College or university students
- Recent graduates
- Aspiring marketers
- Communications students
- Social media enthusiasts
- Content creators
- Anyone looking to build an impressive portfolio
You might be a great fit if you:
- Love Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn
- Enjoy creating engaging content
- Have a good eye for trends and storytelling
- Are creative, reliable, and organized
- Communicate professionally online
- Enjoy interacting with people and building communities
- Can take initiative while working remotely
Experience managing social media accounts is an asset, but enthusiasm, creativity, and a willingness to learn matter just as much.
What You'll Gain
While this is a volunteer position, we believe great work deserves recognition.
At the successful conclusion of the event, a remuneration will be provided in appreciation of your contributions.
More importantly, we're looking for someone who wants to grow with us beyond this inaugural show. As MYA expands, there will be opportunities to take on greater responsibility and potentially step into a leadership role helping shape the future of the brand.
You'll also receive:
- Hands-on experience managing a growing consumer brand
- Mentorship from experienced entrepreneurs and event organizers
- Portfolio-worthy marketing experience
- A professional reference upon successful completion
- Behind-the-scenes access to launching a major consumer event
- Opportunities to network with exhibitors, sponsors, healthcare professionals, and entrepreneurs

MYA celebrates families from every culture, background, and community.
We welcome applications from everyone and especially encourage individuals who understand and can help engage Ontario's wonderfully diverse communities.
Different voices help us tell better stories.
Location
