Day care assistant, Pittsburgh, USA
“I work here at Daisies Day Center, doing the early shift. That means that I work from eight in the morning until four in the afternoon, although the center is open until six in the evening. We take children from birth to five years. Their parents leave them here at the center and pick them up after work. We have five different rooms-one is for the babies to play in, two are for the older children to play in, one is for the babies to sleep in and one is where we serve their meals. Of course there’s also a big playground outside. We do a lot of educational activities with the older children-music, painting, nature studies. They don’t just play with toys all day”.
