Why Choose A Career In Early Childhood Education?
What is more rewarding than helping a child learn and grow? Early childhood educators (ECEs) are a child’s very first teacher outside of the home. They have a huge impact on a young person’s attitude toward learning and potential to succeed.

Best reasons to choose a career in early childhood education include:

  • Getting to work in a fun, active, positive environment
  • Helping young children reach their full potential
  • Forming positive relationships with children and families in your community
  • Becoming a valued member of the education team at a daycare or preschool
  • The opportunity to start your own daycare business
  • Working with children during the most important stages of emotional, physical, and cognitive development
  • Instilling a love of learning and helping toddlers prepare for school
  • Every day brings new adventures and challenges: never a dull moment!
  • Good demand and employment opportunities for ECEs in Montreal
