A career in child care

If someone had asked me if I wanted a career in childcare, I would have said they were crazy. But, here I am. 8 years in the business. So far, no horrific injuries, no life altering mistakes... yet. With a major in communications, and experience as a buyer and marketing manager, how did I end up here? I'm a mom. And at one point I decided my children were the most important things in my world. And so I am in childcare. Am I good at it? Well, if love has anything to do with it, then yes, I am phenomenal. I do my best. I love my children and I try, try, try to enrich their lives the best I can. To me, if we can get outside as much as possible, occasionally make a mess, burn cookies, read and color, then I'm doing a good job. I love my job, even if it makes me a little insane.
