as it stands, ive work retail for 17 years ( man that makes me feel old) either stacking shelves or managing stores and for the most part, I do actually like it, just wish I had more hours with more pay but whatever.
now, I've always been good with small children, I have 3 nephews and a niece all 7 or under who's company I immensely enjoy and the last 2 days ive been doing end of year events for a primary school and a nursery, my contribution was mainly looking after my nephew and all his friends and classmates who wanted to play/attack me as they know I will chase them around etc, one of the mums mentioned that im like a magnet for them, which they love and to be honest, I do too.
its been mentioned numerous times that working with children is something I would be good at but ive always been worried that I wouldn't be able to cope doing it full time, its different babysitting and then looking after other people's children and then there is the whole pervert thing, its considered weird for a guy to like being around kids.
im not really fussed about what others think of me for the most part, but is it so wrong for a guy, especially a guy my age (33) to consider becoming a nursery worker or something along those lines?
