Decent pay and hours if you're looking to supplement your current income

Pros

Hours are typically from 2:30-6:30pm, meaning you start before rush hour starts and after it ends. They pay their employees for all training, including additional courses taken at their HR office. When it comes to the kids, they use a very clearly defined and straightforward system that's pretty easy to adjust to.

Cons

Personally, I feel that the way they market their program is misleading. You're really only herding large groups of children and simply ensuring they don't get hurt, and teaching is only a very minuscule role. I've been paid more for childcare in the past, but it's not an awful job in the least. Just wish they would have been more upfront initially.

Pros

The kids are the only pro. you might think that the $11.25 is great but just you wait.

Cons

You'll have the entire management office worrying about licensing so much so that you'll feel like someone is right behind you o matter where you go. You cannot help the kids in anyway shape or form other than saying "hey it's okay dont worry" or telling them to stop crying. I've worked with kids for 5 years and i have never in my life worked in a place that is this anti-fun. You're not even allowed to speak to a parent about anything cause if you do then.....you're screwed. ALSO about the $11.25, you'll be working less than 20 hours a week so you would earn more at almost any other job.
