7. Per Diem Child Care Worker
Salary: $21,000 – $28,000
If you love children, then probably this is the job to have because you’ll get to see them blossom. The job involves supervising and providing care, direction and guidance to infants, toddlers, or children up to 12 years old. The occupant of the job should also assist with record keeping and to perform duties necessary for the overall care of the children enrolled in the Children’s Center Annex program. This is a pre-placement program for children preparing to enter the foster care system so they’d need quite a bit of care.
The brighter side of the job is that you’ll get to lead individual and group activities for them, such as games and trips, lightening up their lives. You’ll also get to provide basic care, such as prepare meals, offer snacks, and so on.
You need to have a high school diploma or GED, some experience working with children and some college, so if you’re a student, you’d be perfect for the job.
