It all depends on where this nursery school is. If it for school district you might need an associate degree or a credential in early childhood ed which is a CDA and if it is for private daycare you probably need no experience. Good luck

It depends on what your state educational department requires. In Alabama, if you for for an independant day care facility you are required to attend certain classes and gain a certain number of hours approved by the state, and these hours must be renewed every year. If it is a church affiliated facilty, they do not have the same rules or classes required. Check into what the state requirements are. Some colleges do offer Continuing Education courses in child care, and some ststes offer free classes as well.

Above all make sure you are committed enough to this line of work that the low pay is not a major factor. In such a demanding job, the $ will never be enough of a payback, it must come from the heart or it will never be worth the effort.If you are motivated by what's best for the children, your energy & sucess will be phenominal & unstoppable. For what it's worth, the healthiest supplemental to my formal education was the wisdom of Dr, James Dobson's daily radio programs re. parenting & a book of his "The Strong Willed Child".Best expository on unconditional love that I have ever encountered, it stood me in good stead with preschoolers who had been expelled from previous schools as well as the "average" child. Best wishes in your chosen profession!

Check with the state. Try the depatment of social services or just call a childcare center and ask them.

most US day care you can be an assistant teacher in a classroom as long as you have your GED or high school diploma. You get 'certified' in many states after you take some training classes. (first aid, disease recognition, child abuse recognition) try it out, and see if you like the field. the pay is in Head Start programs.

Most facilities require CDA (I believe that it is a certificate in Child Development). There are more modern and expensive centers that require a bachelor's degree in Behavioral Sciene, Child Development, Education, etc.

Go to a junior college with an Early Childhood Education department and you need about 12 units to start working. That's about 3 or 4 classes.

First it's better to pray to see if you must do that. Do you like children a lot? do you have patience and love this hard work, it's not easy if you want to do "a very good jub"!
