Vision Board

NameInstitutional Affiliation DateVision BoardStrengthsAdequate education and training.Good relations especially interacting with children.Passion in the career.Self motivated and determined.

I have had adequate training that made me able to qualify for the job. I have undertaken all the necessary studies and practices in childcare. Through this process, I have been able to gain all the knowledge that I need in handling children. It will therefore, be easier for me to handle the children. I also relate positively with children. This is one strength that led to having passion in the career which is also my strength. Therefore, it will be easier to handle the children and understand their needs. I did not require anyone to motivate me to pursue the career. I determined that I wanted it by myself and this gives me a good opportunity because I was not pressured for the job (Gallagher, 2009).2OpportunitiesAvailability of childcare facilities in my area.Required training and education.Availability of home child care in the region.

There are many centers that offer child care services and are looking for applicants. This might be a good opportunity whereby I can jump start my career. The facilities are close and therefore there will be no any problem when it comes to transportation. There are parents in the region that need their children taken care of at their homes. Some even go ahead to form groups and this is also a very big opportunity (Daniel, Wassell, & Gilligan, 2010). 3Leveraging strengthsUndertaking any more education that might be needed in the area.Looking for jobs in the facilities and other available options so as to increase my experience.Look for part time jobs before being fully employed to gain experience.

There are more area of studies that can still be covered on the same. Undertaking them will give me more knowledge and experience in handling children. Studies that are related to children can also help in learning other features that children need. Getting full time and part time jobs will also help in leveraging my strengths. This will increase my understanding in children as well as bolstering experience.4Cont;Providing care for children in my neighborhood to gain experience and advertise my services.Spending more time with children to get to know them more.

There are neighbors who have children in the ripe age to go to school. I can provide childcare when there parents go to work so that I can gain more experience. Spending more time with the children will further my knowledge in the children. I will be able to understand their needs and any other thing I would not have learned. 5Pursuing OpportunitiesGetting a full time job or part time jobs in childcare facilities.Starting a childcare project in my neighborhood to interested parents.Visit childcare facilities to see how they handle the children in these facilities.

To pursue my career, I will need to start working. There are opportunities in the area and taking them will be very helpful. I can also start my own project in childcare and train children for neighbors who have children and feel that it is necessary. Visiting childcare facilities will give me exposure and also get to interact with professionals in these facilities.6Cont;Go to seminars to learn of new opportunities and latest needed requirements.

This will always keep me updated and also get the chance to learn about available opportunities.7ReferencesGallagher, T. (2009). 100 ideas to market your childcare business.
