"Budget cuts are stressful for any child care provider; however, our program has been hit especially hard this year. I have to be very conscious of my day's plans and the materials used and have had to cut back on field trips which is an unfortunate fact for the kids. I feel they deserve more experiences than our center is providing; part of why I am looking for a new position with a better-funded program."

Stress can often be a regular part of the day to day work experience, primarily when you work with the unpredictable nature of children and their parents!
Talk to the interviewer about which areas of your career as a daycare worker are the most stressful. Ensure that your answer does not include a factor that would make you appear unfit for the position. For instance, a daycare worker should not find mediating between children to be the most stressful part of the job.

"I currently have a couple of delinquent team members who are on the brink of termination. I never like to see people leave, but you cannot force others to have a strong work ethic. The turnover in our daycare center and the uncertainty of people showing up to work is currently my biggest stressor."
