What kind of jobs are there working with little kids?

What are jobs that I could have working in children's homes and/or with kids with special needs?

• I really love working with kids with special needs but I also enjoy working with all kinds of children. I would love to work in a children's home. But what job would that be, like what would my job title be. Also what are other jobs I could have working with special needs kids? I don't really want to be a special ed teacher though.

• Answer:

  If you enjoy working with young kids, you could work with the early intervention program. They work with children who are developmentally delayed for various reasons. You could be a service coordinator who would come to the children's homes and evaluate them do services and then help coordinate those services. You could also be a physical, speech, or occupational therapist. Another option is nursing. You could work as a hime health aide or even a nurse who helps care for children in their homes. Those are just some positions that I can think of that work with special needs kids in their homes. Best wishes!
