Early Childhood Roles

Early Childhood Centers in my area:
1. Jenkins school: they cater to the whole child and are passionate about early  childhood education. They also support those studying the field. They  employ undergraduate students to give them opportunity for experience and to learn from others in the field.
2. Owl hill learning center: this center focuses on helping children as well. They also focus on parent interaction and partnerships. They partner with the school district and also work to provide many resources for parent involvement.
3. Kindercare learning center: this center is great because it also is heavily involved in supporting its community. It partners with many organizations to help children such as Big Brothers, Big Sisters, a juvenile program and they have many programs to assist early readers.

Employment Opportunities:
1. Prepnow.com is seeking qualified online tutors. This job would suit me right now as I am a stay at home mom. They need individuals who have experience with students and a degree.       
2. A local early childhood center is seeking a qualified lead teacher part time. This position would work because it is part time and I would be able to work in the field. A person in this position needs to be up to date on issues and trends in the field, have a passion  to work with all children birth to school age and be reliable.
3. Hildebrandt learning center is in need of a center director. This position would be great for me because it would allow me to utilize the skills and knowledge that  I have acquired throughout my course of study at Walden. This person would need to know how to be a director of a center, know about issues and trends in the field and have great communication skills.

    You mentioned that the Jenkins school employs undergraduates in order to give them an opportunity to experience the early childhood field and network with other educators. I think that is a great opportunity for the undergrad students as well as the current educators. I say the current educators because it would give them a chance to learn about the new issues and trends in the early childhood field!
