Answer 1

There are a range of professions.

Teaching, including elementary and early childhood.

You can work in child care.

You can also work in child psychology. This can actually be fairly unpleasant as you may be dealing with abused and troubled children.

There is a lot of work in the US with gifted children and helping parents deal with children, so the psychology/sociology angle might not be all doom and gloom.

Answer 2

You could be a teacher's aid. Daycare (although I wouldn't recommend it, but that's just me). Intern at something like Child Protective Services (CPS) or some other government entity that works with kids (this is often a tough job as you would be dealing with some bad situations). Lifeguard. Swimming instructor or an instructor for some sport.

Answer 3

Try daycare centers.

Answer 4

Babysitter, teacher...
