“Working with CKE is a extremely rewarding job. Each event childcare program is individualized to the needs of the children and families. It is a great feeling to be able to put a smile on the children’s and parent’s faces. CKE provides fun, a safe place, entertainment, and care for children, allowing the parents to be worry and care free!”

“I love working for CKE! I consider myself fortunate every day because I am paid to travel and play. Great opportunities and wonderful people to work with.”

“I’m Katie! I have a degree from University of North Texas in Interdisciplinary Studies, certification in Math an ESL. I am in my third year of teaching, and I’m working on my Masters in Math Education as well. I have been working for Corporate Kids Events as a conference childcare provider and Program Manager for 12 years now, and I love it!”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Corporate Kids as an event child care provider and Program Manager for the past three years. All of the CKE staff have a passion for working with kids and ensuring that they have the best experience with memories that will last forever. Whether a child likes arts and crafts, board games, or more involved contests and games, there is something for everyone. In my experience, the kids always wish they had more time at the CKE programs.”

“My husband Darren and I have been Program managers with CKE for just about 2 years now and it has been one of the most rewarding experiences we have ever been a part of. We have met some absolutely beautiful children and we look forward to seeing them at least once a year, if not more. Working with organizations such as NAAF, NHF, NEDF and CFMRF, to name a few, has been so much fun and the children are a BLAST. It is so rewarding to have a child come to our event that has not been separated from their parents and by the end of the day, not wanting to leave. We have developed wonderful relationships with clients, parents and children that we wouldn’t trade for anything. ”
