I am a mother of 2 myself looking for an extra income, I currently work as a Daycare teacher part-time educating children from 0-24 months. I have a degree in teaching. I choose not to work for the public school system because I enjoy working with the younger early development stage. I believe these years are more important. The reason why I chose to go part-time, so I can spend the quality time needed with my own children. I am CPR certified, I attend quarterly seminars on child development, child situations, etc. As stated, I have two children myself that are 7 years boy, and 2 years girl. My children have excelled as well from having the ability to come to work with me my son was accepted into Magnet school for communication, and my daughter is learning sign language. I have worked with many types of children from mentally Read more challenged, adhd, and advanced to name a few. I really enjoy what I do that is why I have not chosen to go on to another job full time because It isn't about the pay as much as it is the joy of dealing with little people.
