The three segments that appealed to me the most are parent support specialist, preschool teacher, and occupational therapist. I chose a parent support specialist because this occupation focuses on assisting the parent to understand the child’s development. This also provides the parent to learn about the milestones in a child’s development and become more understanding. There are activities provided to have the parents interact with their child. Parents have the opportunity to spend time and learn about the child. Also, the parent support specialist can make visits to the family home and also make assessments to gather proper information (“Leadership Theories”, 2018).  The second segment is a preschool teacher. The preschool teacher works in the classroom. It is a challenge as the teacher handles multiple children in one area. However, it is more than just teaching children. It involves working as a support system for the parents as well. The third segment is an occupational therapist. Toohill states that occupational therapists work with children from birth to 18 years who have disabilities (“Leadership Theories”, 2018). It’s a different experience and if it can benefit a child then it’s worth it.
Three dispositions that assisted in the people being successful includes having the proper education in the field, the understanding of children and their families, and a passion for learning. I think it requires levels of education to work in this field. This also requires experience and knowledge built upon that education. It’s important to learn information regarding proper procedures, diversity within children, and child development. Understanding the child and their families is also important. This reduces misconceptions, boundaries, and misunderstandings. This allows everyone to work more effectively as a team. I also think to have a passion for learning assists with being successful because they are in this field for learning and working with children.
Insights I have gained from the dispositions include working with the family and fellow staff (or colleagues), interact with the children, and be more open and understanding. For me to be more effective in my work, I need to learn how to work with the family and other staff as a team. I also think that interacting with the children helps build knowledge along with new information. Also being open and understanding is key because it helps the professional become more approachable in a situation.

From this career exploration I have learned that I highly underestimate what I can do with my degree. I do not feel qualified enough for most positions which I’m sure will come with time and experience. Many careers in childhood education do not actually require a degree but they want experience. Experience for me, is kind of my down fall as I had spent five years unemployed while we were stationed in Germany, and I’ve only recently began working in schools. I move and change jobs frequently, so it is difficult to gain the steady blocks in my resume and experience.
