Need advice

[trish73]

My goal is to to teach and work creatively with young children such as
Art/craft teacher.
After completing the diploma of childcare what types of careers would be an option and would any of the careers match being close to an art/ craft teacher for young children?
Or would it be better if I just be a level three in childcare and do an art degree?
I thought that maybe after school care might be career to allow me to work creatively with young children.
If anyone else knows, please share your thoughts and or experiences.

When you’re working in a centre you can focus on art/craft etc. You can also add that to you’re resume that you’re interested in art and craft... if you specialise in it then it’s something you can include as part of resumes which is will make you stand out...

You’re welcome!

My 4 year old is obsessed with art and craft at the moment so after school we have a creativity session for about an hour... she paints , draws or we make things... I’m not that arty but I haven’t done too badly! Lol... today she wants to make an elephant, it’s a good thing I have lots of paper plates! Heheheeh!
