Someone, somehow documented what my work is like!
If you're interested read this: "Can I cut it as a day care worker? One of the most exhausting, worst-paid, smelliest jobs in America," which is a lovely title for a fine article.
While I'm over-educated in my field and for most purposes I'm actually an administrator (but I am not the man) I find my happiest moments at work, when I feel most fulfilled and like my job actually matters, are when I'm with little ones (or when I conquer some organizational cluster-fuck with my keen color-coding skills). Despite the pee, poop and endless boogers, little kids are simply amazing.
And what early education workers do is absolutely crucial. From socialization to potty training, ABCs to 1, 2, 3s to "we don't hit our friends" to (my favorite) saying "I don't like it!" to asking questions to saying thank you, important stuff life happens starts at preschools.
