I have been looking to see what jobs are out there because I want to moving away from working at the daycare I’m at and become a teacher or director or a program. However my references (my current bosses) do not want me to leave because I a great asset to the team and have refused to be a reference strictly on the purpose of they don’t want me to leave. So sadly, I can’t go better my experience at another place because they want to keep me. And jobs love the current references too much here.

When I moved to public school from daycare, I had the same problem. I used previous bosses and coworkers for references and eventually was offered a job. Keep trying!

Try applying at public schools as a paraprofessional. We are desperate for paras around here. Ask trusted co-workers for letters of recommendation or the parents of the children in your care. You can ask anyone who can attest to your work ethic, experience with children, knowledge or expertise in the area of child development, and include your certifications and transcripts of any related coursework. You can also apply to be a substitute para to get your foot in the door. Prove your worth in he substitute role, and you will be more likely to get hired for a permanent position. Don’t give up. The right opportunity will present itself if you are patient and persistent. Best of luck in your search!
