Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: National/Federal Level
The three jobs that are of interest to me are NAEYC, Head
Start, or Teaching an Early Childhood Class all these are ones that I have the
education to fulfill all of their requirements. They are also ones I have a
little bit of knowledge and seem to be very interesting.
My first job would be, The National Association for the
Education of Young Children (NAEYC) This
is a wonderful program it has several resources for educators to explore about
children. This would be a great place to work and be on the other side of
working and helping child care centers to obtain their accreditation. I could
give out advice on how to set up their environment, and to be able to give
these children a wonderful place to learn. NAEYC is a great opportunity to help
teachers get any advice they need.
My second job would be, National Head Start Association it a
great program that works with the parents and the children to succeed in their
goals they have set for them. Head Start is wonderful to give these children a
head Start in their learning and to succeed in their learning as well. With all
of the knowledge I have gained would be able to help the child and parents to
succeed in their own learning experience. Head Start is a good resource for any
educators.
My last job would be to teach a college class. I would love
to have the opportunity to give the same education that I was given. With all
the knowledge I have gained i would hoped that I could give others some other
resources to follow or to give them the learning experience that they all
deserve. Head Start has several programs within their program to help parents
out, so they can succeed in their everyday life experiences.
I feel with all the education and knowledge I have gained
that I could do any of these three jobs without any concerns, and could be able
to help others out in the process.

Robin, I love how you thought about NAEYC as a possible job perspective. Isn't their website so informative? I love how they have currculum and activity ideas, and I love their newsletters and articles. There is so much valuable information that they offer any early childhood advocate. You would do well in this organization.
Robin,
All of the three jobs you have chosen are very interesting. I too am interested in NAEYC as a possible place of employment. They have great benefits for both the members of the organization as well as employees. I am confident you would be a great asset to this organization
Robin I would like to teach at a head start program here in Michigan. hopefully after this class I will get my chance. Thank you for your post.
Robin.
I too love your choices for jobs. All are great organizations. Have you ever done a presentation at an NAEYC conference? That is a great way to get to know the people at NAEYC. Although they don’t always pay presenters, they will sometimes pay for the travel expenses and hotel. Head Start also has positions at the national level. You might try the National Head Start Association (NHSA). They not only have their position listed but they have listing for programs from all different states. Good Luck!
