Child care teacher

Today I chatted with an Indian lady, she is working in shipping company's Accounts Dept. She said nowadays, most people don't do things they like. She hates accounting, but for earning additional income for children's tuition, she continues working in this line. Six years ago, she wanted to get out of accounting line, so she asked the company to let her work as part time with the company. She took up an part time course on Child Philosophy. If the course was on morning session, she worked in the afternoon and via versa. She took both private course as well as Government recognised course, so that she can work in the Government related school or childcare centre.
She spent almost S$4000++ attending the private course and paid about S$1000++ from the Government subsidised course. The subsidised course requires her to complete 44 hours practical. She tried to work as part time child care teacher after completion of the course. She worked in the child care centre that take care of the 1-3 years old kids, she said she found it is a tough job as well. She needs to change pampers for children, carry them when they cry, feed them food, pat them to sleep, when the children got sick, she was sick too. Imagine her own kids has the maid to handle all these. But it is easier to find job for taking care of the small children, it is hard to get job for taking care of the older children because the teacher for taking care the older child tends to stay on the job. While the resignation rate for taking care of toddle is higher, hence, more job vancancy in these capacity. After she has worked for six months, she quite the child care line and return to the accountancy line. She said it is not easy to get a part time job, hence she has to stay on the accountancy line for full time now and she is still looking for part time job or somethings that interest her.
