Knowledge: Teachers are required to get a license and must renew every 4 years to stay on top of any updates and training. On the other hand, childcare providers do not need any kind of certificate or college degree.

Let me tell you something... Childcare is so expensive!!
Is it? I know that quality care at a young age can do a lot to help a child's future.
I agree and that's why I'm a stay at home mom. I used to work at a daycare and there is so much negligence!
That's too bad. Child care providers are often a child's first teachers.
Yup, that's right. Do you know if they are licensed?

Response: No, childcare providers do not need any kind of certificate or college degree.
