I want to run away

[glarkley]

I have worked in child care for 15 years and have had my dayhome open for just under a year. I love my kids and I think that the job we do is SO important but I have these feelings of wanting to run away and give up some days too. Working with kids all day is hard, but doing it in isolation at home is even harder. It's something I think you have to do yourself to understand. My hubby doesn't really get it but he tries and he helps out a lot when he gets home so I'm lucky.

Keep with it and remember that what you do with the little people in your care really does matter, both to them and to their families. You are very important! Even on the days you don't feel that way
