: I'm new to the area and am wondering about job possibilities if I decide to stay. I have experience and an associates degree (2 year degree) in early child development and was wondering what is out there for me in this area? Does anyone know of any preschools, daycares, or Headstart programs that might be hiring? If so, what is the usual pay, etc. in this area? My friend that I am staying with has no idea. Her kids are grown, and she has had a job for quite some time. Any advice on where to stay away from, etc. would also be nice!
You may want to look into being adventureous and open your own daycare. I do not know what kind of pay you are going to get in this area to live on. Usually the better-paying jobs are in the bigger cities.
You could also look into maybe the school district and see if there are any opportunities for things such as teacher aides, etc.
