About this trail:
A typical day might involve finger-painting, playing "pat-a-cake," singing a lullaby before nap time, distributing Cheerios for a snack, reciting Little Miss Muffet during story hour and--on a nice day--taking a walk in the park. Though this may not exactly sound grueling, ask any child care worker or nanny about the demands of the job, and you are likely to hear just how tough this line of work really is.

Being a child care provider is not the easiest profession nor is it the most money minting one, but it is reasonably lucrative and the relationships you form are probably priceless. Robin Mclure's page is a gem in offering snippets on this profession in case you are a novice.

May 11 is National Child Care Provider Appreciation Day, and for those of us who are lucky enough to find a provider who is a partner in helping to care for our precious kids, it's the perfect occasion to express how much you care! The day was designated in 1966 as a way to recognize the often overlooked and always hard-working child care work force. It is celebrated each year on the Friday before Mother's Day.
