Daycare Teacher Reviews
What is it like working as a Daycare Teacher?
September 2014
Daycare Teacher:
Pros: Children's face.
Cons: Once you see the children forget the world.
August 2014
Know Your Rights.
Daycare Teacher:
This is a job with lots of responsibilities. It becomes stressful at times, but it can also very rewarding. I consider the daycare teacher as the most important of all levels of teachers. Daycare teachers form the educational foundation in young children, and it is on this foundation that all the other teachers build.
Daycare teachers can never be fully compensated for the responsibilities laid upon them. They perform duties such as parents, doctor, lawyer, police, advisor, interpretor etc. Therefore, a daycare teacher must exercise such qualities as love, patience, tolerance, forgiveness, understanding, kindness, gentleness etc.
Although daycare teachers are grossly underpaid, they are rewarded with the satisfaction of watching the children grow physically, excel academically, and become functionally productive members of society.

Coworkers Are Friendly.
Daycare Teacher:
Pros: I like working with most of the people.
Cons: I don't like that we don't get paid full 8 hours for holidays. I don't like that we get sent home based on ratios. I don't like that they move children to different classrooms all day.
December 2013
Daycare Teacher:
