I have been a daycare worker for 25 years...it is germy...it is tiring...it can be a bit nerve-wracking...but it is wonderful! There is so much fun interacting with the kids through art, music and play. The pay is not as great as other jobs, but I love the job! There are rewards that you cannot imagine spending time with children...they are fun to be around...there are so many kids today that need help...if any small thing we can do in the daycare setting will benefit that child now or in the future, we are truly doing a great work!!!
