A Deer (not Dear) offspring is a fawn.
A Duck fledgling is a duckling.
An Owl fledgling is an owlet.
A Swan fledgling is a cygnet.
Furthermore the Male and Female distinctions are as follows.
Deer (M) Buck (F) Doe
Duck (M) Drake (F) Hen
Swan (M) Cob (F) Pen
Sorry but I don't know about the Owl except male and female are just that. A owlet or chick of a tree nesting species is called a "brancher" when it's big enough to begin exploring the "branches" around its nesting area.(FYI)

In a public school you will need a teacher certification - which will require a BA and student teaching. During student teaching you will receive no income for 16 weeks unless you work nights (VERY difficult during student teaching). States offer different options for the certification. Some offer Early Childhood Ed which is birth through age 8 (third grade) that would let you teach K, but some only offer Elementary (K-6). Both are different than the degree in Child & Family Development that many schools offer. While it also trains you to work with young children, it does NOT certify you to teach above preschool.
Another option is to find out if any of your local public schools offer a preschool program on-site. Its a growing trend and many schools are piloting preschool programs. Not sure if they would require you to be degreed or certified, but you get the same benefits as a public school teacher and would most likely earn quite a bit more than you do now.
I would suggest contacting a school and asking to "shadow" a K teacher for a day to see what a typical work day is like. Mention to them that you work in early childhood ed as a preschool teacher and are considering pursuing teacher certification. I assume that you are required by your preschool to have a criminal background check and TB test on file. You might mention this to them as their volunteers & employees must have these.
Also, some larger preschools offer tuition reimbursement for teachers intending to become degreed or certified. If yours does not, there are also several scholarships from ECE professional organizations at the state and national level that might help you with the financial aspect of continued schooling. Best of luck!

What is a "swam"? It's spelled "deer", not "dear".
