The problem is that many parents don't even make that much per hour. Yes, childcare workers should be paid more, but parents certainly can't afford to pay it. It's just sad how low many jobs pay.

It's a huge slap in the face when the burger place down the street pays almost as much as your job that requires a degree pays.

A house on bus stops in the US costs about 150k per bed bath suite. If kids share a room like parents do, that's 75k of wealth needed per person plus about 1% for taxes and utilities yearly. Groceries are 2k per person yearly?? So the typical person in a family needs about 75k of wealth and 4k yearly income. That's like 40k after tax income for a family of 10, and a 800k house. With dedication and focus and support from family and community, this is very achievable and realistic for anyone who wants it. No day care needed, as this model allows for married stay at home moms to parent their own kids.

My Mother was a Daycare teacher for over 20 years. She loved the children and she was always a favorite teacher of the little ones. She gave so much love to them, but also had to work other jobs, when my Dad became disabled. She worked 2-3 jobs raising her own 4 kids, until as soon as we could work as teenagers, we did, also - working in childcare, and then taking care of her Grandchildren before her stroke. Now she gets a dismal $700 minus Medicare, a month from Social Security after her disability from stroke 5 years ago. At the same time, the people who need childcare the most, might make barely enough to pay childcare, so might as well stay home. Maybe we should pay everyone a living wage, that pays enough for one parent/person to work, and the other person/ parent to stay home and take care of their children. Just like with Nursing homes, the administrators make 3 figure salaries and pay the hands on carers a low wage minimal as possible. I also helped as one of my first jobs and earned 4.75 hour minimum wage at the time.

I have noticed that videos of childcare centers tend to typically show reasonably calm and quiet, and apparently well-staffed, non-mobile infant groups and/or preschool groups (but not also highly active toddler groups). I have also noticed that they typically do not tend to show groups with multiple (if any) apparently emotionally disturbed children who are exhibiting any seriously aggressive and/or other seriously challenging behaviors. Added to that, I have noticed that they typically tend to show only those classrooms in which there are (at least during filming) workers who have only a small number of children in their care per worker, and whose groups of children are typically all of approximately the same height and weight. It's as if only those more attractive-looking sorts of scenarios are exclusively what is in keeping with reality in childcare centers, when - in fact - that is not actually always and only ever the case in every center (let alone in every center all of the time). In reality, even where childcare workers are considered - at least both by the state and by their employers - as being within ratio, and where the number of workers per child is (presumed as being) enough for the children given to be with each worker to be able to be cared for by any one worker, that - despite being considered as true - is not necessarily as it seems. Within any number of childcare centers, one or more children - each of whom is not yet diagnosed as having (but who may - nonetheless - have) various, more or less serious, special needs conditions - may be indefintely placed within groups, but without enough workers to handle their special needs (not without those workers having to neglect any of the other children's needs in order to do that), and while not (during any of that time, if ever) receiving their needed one-on-one services from any qualified early-intervention therapist.

Each of the various special needs conditions requires a different sort of specialized training, and each different sort of special need has a different sort of specialized treatment to be applied in order for that special need to be appropriately dealt with.

Policy makers, parents, et al. who do not do this work themsleves ought to - if only for even 1 day - to have responsibilty for sufficiently fulfilling all of the occuring (currently identifed as being) health, safety, and well-being needs (even without any so-called "special needs" child(ren) in the group) of multiple children, and to have that responsibility even when and where any number of those children's needs happen to be conflicting needs - such as when any two, or three, or four, or five, or six, or even more children happen to both (or even to all) have immediate need of one-on-one physical assistance (even if the children each happen to need this , but while being at widely different locations from one another, even if within the very same room), simultaneously ... even while possibly ALSO being expected to be doing - for and/or with any number of those children - any number of other things, as well - but that is NOT (or that are not) actually needed to be done for and/or with any of those specific children, during that same time frame. Wherever and whenever there is any ongoing insistence upon the fulfillment of a collection of what are - in fact - competing, conflicting (and even mutually contradictory) given tasks expected to be being completed (during any given amount of time), anyone trying to fulfill all of those tasks - as expected, even where and when it is impossible for anyone to do so - will necessairly become increasingly more and more crazy-making to that person over time.

I wonder whether anyone is looking into the mistreatment, the insufficient and/or poor quality guidance and support, and the inferior working conditions that various childcare workers are subjected to by employers, administrators, fellow co-workers, and various children's family members as also being possible - and equally important - causes of childcare worker shortages. Also, since ratios differ from state-to-state, clearly the idea that the given ratios for any state necessarily do represent what supposedly is "enough adults to take care of" whatever is the number of children (of whatever age-range) given to each adult is debatable, especially if due consideration were given to what is the actual developmental range - and what are the specific needs - of the each (and all) of the specific children who are given to be with any particular childcare worker.

My son is special needs, and his daycare has no subs. Only 1 teachers aid per class room sometimes none if they call out sick and teachers are going into school sick all the time. Parents cant afford to call out sick, which we must because our kids are getting sick all the time and my son is only able to get speach therapy at school 1 day sometimes 2 days a week so I have to seek therapy outside of his school which is incredibly difficult when your paying out of pocket or you live in a small town. Us parents are constantly having to supply to schools with supplies for the kids as well. It's very disappointing how the people who are helping us raise our children essentially are getting no pay and virtually no benefits and little help.

The workers are probably taking care of their own children for the most part. $12.24 an hour is acceptable in this part of Texas.

The breakdown of the family units caused this. Single parents find it difficult to provide care. Working married couples use the grandparents to care for their children. Works great.

Here is another reason why: the daycare staff are a bunch of jerks! Almost every daycare center I have gone to is always getting me stuck with someone who is difficult to work with because of their hatred toward the children, hatred toward me, and hatred toward their job. Like if a child bites or scratches another child, don’t yell at me-it doesn’t magically fix anything! First, Comfort the kid. Second, talk to the biter or scratcher. Third, wrote an incident report. No yelling at the kid that did Ty r biting or the other teacher. You can’t do that; it is called work harassment!

In tx had horrible time with daycare from 90's licensed meant nothing. Son was bitten on elbow, meal was popcorn,no soap then abruptly closed, another put kids in a closet with scary mask and threatened to. Whoop them but ratio was 17 3yo to one provider.used in home provider which was cheaper,some better,some much worse. had to plan 1/4 income for basic childcare but being RN working second shift with mandatory OT, working weekends was like 1/3 income. Daycare is paid weekly,job pays every 2wks,so car problem, getting sick, being cancelled for low census were incredibly stressful

I'm getting tired of these calls for government-subsidized child care. I work in an office where I am pressured to change my vacation time in favor of parents with kids. I am expect to understand and cover when other employees who are parents come in late or leave early. I don't get paid any more than these parents yet I'm asked what I have against children (emotional manipulation) if I complain. Now they want my tax money too. I say if you can't afford children, don't have them. As a single person I already pay higher taxes than married people and asking for child-care subsidies is just too much.

The level/quality of Childcare is up to the Parents… but there are tons “Babysitters/Nannies” that make great money ! Difference is , they do a lot more ! These people are wanting more money to essentially watch kids and basically make sure they’re fed and don’t get hurt. ….and the raise is for what ???
@BlueJohnXD3 жыл бұрын
Are you being purposefully obtuse? They do a lot more than just feeding them and making sure they don't get hurt. Childcare workers help young preschool aged kids develop social skills, as well as learning skills. They are some of the most important workers, and they're barely being paid a minimum wage. You really question why they want to earn more? Everyone should be paid at least a living wage, first of all, and qualified workers should earn more than that...aka childcare workers.
@texasbelle3332 жыл бұрын
You should really delete this IGNORANT comment. Babysitters and Nannies usually, only have 1 to 4 children in their care. Preschool teachers are in a classroom with 10 to 18 children, sometimes by ourselves. Mind you, most of the children aren’t potty trained. And let’s not forget about behavior issues.
