I was just wondering, if you have an Elementary Ed degree, why
you wouldn't want to teach in the public schools. You would
make more money. You will not get paid very well as an infant
teacher. However, if your heart is in it, you will love it!
The only suggestion that I could give you is to make sure you
let them know that you love children and it is usually reciprocal!
I have a certificate as an Infant and Toddler Specialist and
just recently acquired my IL Type 04 teaching certificate. I
am at a crossroads myself! Make your decision wisely and ask
for God's direction. Take care, God bless, Deb
