Important Qualities

• Communication skills. Childcare workers must be able to talk with parents and colleagues about the progress of the children in their care. They need both good speaking skills to provide this information effectively and good listening skills to understand parents’ instructions.
• Decision-making skills. Good judgment is necessary for childcare workers so they can respond to emergencies or difficult situations.
• Instructional skills. Childcare workers need to be able to explain things in terms young children can understand.
• Interpersonal skills. Childcare workers need to work well with people to develop good relationships with parents, children, and colleagues.
• Patience. Working with children can be frustrating, so childcare workers need to be able to respond to overwhelming and difficult situations calmly.
• Physical stamina. Working with children can be physically taxing, so childcare workers should have a lot of energy.

We hire for ATTITUDE, not necessarily aptitude. We will train you to excel in a childcare environment, if you have the passion to do so! So even if you don’t meet all the requirements listed above, still consider applying if you’re a bright, motivated, loving, positive person who wants to be a part of a winning team and make a difference in the lives of children and families.'
