Worked here a few years ago, realizing how wrong I was treated. I barely got the job when my co-teacher decided to go on vacation after me working there for like 2 weeks. She told me I'd have help from the only male teacher (this is important), and he barely helped me. There were always 2 kids who were TERRIBLE, one of them was the child of a kinder teacher?!?!?..... (Like hello? Can you raise your child better....?) I barely got any training at all, they just said oh you were a sub before? Here you go! It's two very different environments, I think some training was necessary or at least to not be left alone with 25+ 4-5 year olds when I first got the job. I was only 22. It's not like I had much experience with that many young children at once. The understaffing and lack of help put a toll on me mentally, so we agreed it'd be best if I wasn't in that stressful environment. I really don't think all daycares are this bad. Maybe they should relocate for more teachers, idk.
Back to the one male teacher. He had red hair and his name was like Jesse or something. I can't remember how, but we ended up texting briefly, I believe he randomly messaged me at least some months later, I asked who the number was, and then was just being kind, texting a bit, small talk, ya know. Until all of a sudden he starts sexually harassing me. Lol. I can't remember exactly what was said because I blocked it out, but it was basically something about wanting to have relations with me. I was so in shock because, I don't care if you think someone's attractive, you don't do that, ESPECIALLY when you're working around kids. I find that very sick.
Also my co-teacher could NEVERRR get my name correct. Sickening and humiliating. It had to be on purpose! It's not a crazy name. read more
