NATURE OF WORK
The nature of work for child care workers can be different depending on what job you have. Generally, they monitor the safety of the children, prepare and organize their meals and snacks, make sure the child is keeping a good hygiene, and change diapers. They may also develop routines for the child's rest, food, and physical activity and watch for signs of emotional and development problems.
24% of child care services are day-cares. Those that work in day cares have more responsibilities. Some responsibilities they may have are cleaning the day care, buying groceries and buying some of the kids needs. Most child care workers work full-time. The area they work in must be child proof and they are outside a lot. Normally, there is a ratio of the number of staff to each kid. Full time nannies can work up to 40 hours a week.
