Becoming A Family Day Care Educator
Why Become a Family Day Care Educator
Becoming a family daycare educator means gaining the flexibility to choose your own pathway and build a rewarding career. You will do this while working in a role doing the things that you love. You’ll be running daycare services from your own home and providing education and care for local children. You’ll also have a team of experienced and passionate childcare specialists helping you along the way. While it’s similar to running your own business, you’ll have the support of our team along the way.
Convenience In Working From Home
Many people who decide to become home-based family day care educators are already working in the early childhood education sector, often at a center. For many, the shift to home-based care is greatly received. It means they have the freedom to develop a flexible working schedule, and not have to deal with a daily commute. They also have the flexibility to develop their learning content and engagement activities, that comply with the National Quality Framework.
There are so many benefits to running a family day care service in your own home. From flexible hours to professional development opportunities, the role is what you make it.
