Fun and enjoyable workplace
Assistant Teacher (Current Employee), Decatur, GA – April 26, 2013
A typical day at work for me is: Having the kids come in erly in the morning and preparing them for school. Preparing breakfast then off to take kids to their school. I pick them up when the bell rings and then back to the daycare for homework and fun times activities.I learned how to be patient working with different types of culture, attitudes and – more... the changes that the kids go through on a daily basis.My co-workers are nice well some of them its different working with all females because of different attitudes so I just have to stay focus at all times. The hardest part of my job is when the kids dont get along with each other and I have to remind them that we are all friends while we are in the classroom.The most enjoyable part of my job is seeing the smile on a child's face when they walk into my classroom. – less

horrible management/ poor pay/ be dying and still required to come in/ no benefits
ashamed (Former Employee), valdosta, ga – March 27, 2013
Cons: everything
the management has no education and horrible people skills.
there are no benefits except discounted care for ur own child, however, once u look at the classrooms its down grading to move your child there. if u are sick, don't bother calling in they will tell you that you have to come. The overall feeling is being unappreciated.

Difficult yet satisfying
Lead Teacher (Former Employee), Virginia Beach, VA – March 12, 2013
Pros: discounted child care
Cons: over worked and under paid
A typical work day involves anywhere from 28-32 children (age 2) and being over the state ratio laws. Management genuinely loves children and is very helpful to many parents which makes it a comfortable environment in that aspect. However, management has many personnal issues which interfere with the company's mission and the other staff's ability to – more... effectively and fairly do their jobs. – less

Difficult work environment
TEACHER/FLOATER (Former Employee), Durham, NC – March 10, 2013
I enjoyed the work. The pay was not the best and they refused to work with my school schedule. Being the only male working I was taken advantage of from time to time and was always looked over when it came to raises and promotions. The kids made going to work enjoyable.

I enjoyed my kids and enjoyed my work
Assistant Teacher (Former Employee), Hixson, TN – January 9, 2013
Genuinely the co-workers only cared about a paycheck and not the well being of the children. As a mother I cared about each and every child and wanted to make sure they were being treated with the loving and caring they needed.

not a great place!
teacher (Former Employee), asheville nc – November 8, 2012
AWEFUL!! I worked there for almost 1 year..the children were great (as most kids are) but the director and assistants will not help staff. The lack of team effort is unbelieveable. The pay is a slap in the face and when asked how to advance in the company I was looked at like I had asked for 1 million dollars! They allow children who are sick to attend – more... school which will make the other children and teachers sick as well........don't work for the comapny! – less

Non-Productive
Assistant Teacher (Former Employee), Athens, Georgia – September 26, 2012
Most horrible career I've ever been a part of. Directors do not take anything into consideration, and do not properly address issues with customers or employees.

Poor pay, no major medical, poor management
NA (Former Employee), NA – September 17, 2012
Pros: daycare discount, friendly co-workers
Cons: poor management, no benefits, no room for growth
I worked here for a little over a year, and while my co workers were nice and friendly, the management wasn't. They had high expectations for some, and little for others. It was very clickish and people are not treated equally. The salary was low and the raises were little or nothing unless you were one of the ones that got a bonus' for meeting budget. – more... In my position there wasn't any room for growth. There wasn't any major medical coverage, but they did have 401k, and you received a discount on daycare if your child went to one of their daycares. – less

A learning environment for the teachers and students.
Lead Teacher (Current Employee), Charlotte, NC – September 14, 2012
I work with children ages 2-3. I enjoy being able to teach them new skills that they will be able to use from day to day. I have learned many things from the people that I work with like: classroom displays, classroom management and ways to make learning fun. The management at my job is very helpful, they are always there to lend a helping hand when – more... needed. They provide me with the needed materials to teach my students. – less

Productive work environment
Lead Teacher/Third in Charge (Current Employee), Augusta, GA – September 3, 2012
Pros: paid holidays, 401k, healthcare benefits
Cons: schedule changes frequently
Working for Childcare network was a good experience. If you enjoy working with children this is a great place to get your start. I really enjoyed having paid holidays. They also love to promote from within the company.
