I am currently staying home to raise my two children 3 and 2. This is by choice, for we did not want to put our kids in day care. We would rather sacrifice the luxaries in life before resorting to leaving our children with day care providers. No disrespect to all the day care providers... I know a lot of parents who would be lost without this service. My husband and I planned to start a family after one year of being married, for I still had a year left of college.
I could use some suggestions on how to stay current in this field without having to take scheduled classes. Do you think going to teacher seminars is enough? I really can not afford to tackle my masters degree yet, but I do plan on taking online courses for a master's degree in the near future. I plan on going back to work in about 2-3 years. My children are older now, so I can get out once in a while to attend a seminar. I do have some help from in-laws and my parents.
