Teaching the Kids

Everyday at the daycare I try to teach each kid something new. Most of them are so young that it takes them a lot of repetition to finally get them to start doing what you were trying to teach them.

Today I taught Nina to put her toys in the trunk of the little car she rides around. Yes, it sounds very small and pointless, but to me it's just her slowly learning to take instruction and it may finally lead to her listening to my direction when I ask her to clean up her toys.

I've written about the child's mind before, but once again I want to say how much it fascinates me. They are so clueless about the world, but everyday they learn something new that will help them adapt in the real world. I'm really enjoying my job and I hope I'll be around to see these kids grow-up to be big girls and boys.

Kids Full Time

Alright, so I was offered the daycare job and just got done accepting it. November 3rd I start my new journey. I'm very excited, it only took 8 months to finally find a full time job that fits exactly what I'm looking for. The director of childcare seems like such a great lady. I will continue to pursue photography and try to get as many weekend or evening gigs as I can, I'll need the extra funds. I am a full time worker once again and this time I get to play with kids all day instead of stressing out to make deadlines, Yay!!

It feels good to feel good..

I feel like my personality is really shining more and more these days. It's getting me sales for Our 365 and it just gave me a new job opportunity. I've been hired at a daycare and I need to make my decision to take it or not by Monday. I would love being able to just play with babies and kids all day. It might be stressful at times, but you have to feel good doing that job and the kids have to make you laugh throughout the day. I do like my job at Our 365, so decisions..decisions... I would be working one on one with children and really learn if working with kids is what I want to do with my life at this point. I went into the interview with a very easy going attitude and I feel I answered the interview questions very well. It helped that the girl interviewing me was my age and her co-worker was also very young. I see potential for growing friendships and working in a less stressful environment. I will let you all know what I decide of course. Work is really coming in for me and I really think it has a lot to do with my new confidence and my profound self-assurance.
