Great environment - Avis employé Program Leader Think Together

Great team and support from immediate manager and assistant You grow to love the kids and they love you (as long as you keep your boundaries in an assertive manner) Most parents will talk and work with you on their child's behavior and actions There are good sites, but there are more bad ones

Inconsistent communication, people have attitudes or expect you to know or understand Lack of support from HR and upper management Inconsistent policy explanation and training (they say do not touch the kids at all, but still have in their handbook to show "healthy touch" only on the shoulders and above to aid in emotional learning Last minute tasks and events, leading to stressful situations often No comrade with support on site, they expect you to be independent most of the time and soon get annoyed and passive aggressive that they will ignore you They will blame you or make you responsible for defending yourself against the kids without training you on how or what to do when attacked or have your personal space violated by a child (biting, touching, scratching, standing too close). Do not follow the directions and policy of Think Together at all, and put a lot of pressure on you Expectations can be unrealistic and unreasonable

Working with kids is fun and my supervisor and co workers are cool. Everyday is different it’s not repetitive in the sense of doing the same things everyday.

Management sucks especially the higher ups. They don’t care or choose to listen to no one and has crazy expectations when sites are always understaffed.Literally tries to move you to different sites or find unreasonable excuses to fire you so turnover rates are high.
