I was wondering what normal work hours were for other childcare teachers.

I work 9-6 M/F 8:30-6 T/Th 9-11:30 W And then planning/staying late for clean-up and late parents isn't counted in, so usually I really leave around 6:20ish.

I'm exhausted!

Are these fairly typical hours?

Oh, and I do get a lunch break.
Cheryl/NH I'm in a half day program now, but when I was in full day childcare, my hours were typically 8-5 M-F with 1/2 hour lunch break.

You must be wiped with these hours, especially staying for clean up. I wonder if your hours could be changed for you to start 1/2 hour later on Mon-Thurs to make up for the staying late for parents and clean up? Y...See More

Schari Home child care - so 7:00 - 5:00, M-F.

My lunch break is during quiet time so really still on duty, but time to sit for a bit and eat.

That of course doesn't include the curriculum planning, parent communication, and janitorial work. That is all before or after the children come.
