A little bit about me

My name is Me'Kayla! , My career life for the past 4-5 years has been different avenues of childcare. The avenues I followed were, Daycare worker, before and after school care, College co-op monitor for Early Childhood Educators, Nursery School Supervisor and now Home Daycare provider. Many different roads, but they all have a common interest CHILDREN. When I was done high school I knew that I wanted to go into Childcare. I wanted to nurture and teach young children. At the age of eighteen, I liked the idea of playing all day and getting paid for it. In this profession you learn very quickly that it not all just playing. Working in a daycare setting you learn about working as a team with the other educators in your classroom. When the teachers work well together the classroom has a feeling of calm and tranquility. I had so much fun with my team teachers. Everyday is learning experience because not one day is the like the other. Children are not predictable.
