What education and major would I have to do to work in Child Protective Services?
I have always wanted to work with kids and though some might not see this as a good way to I like the idea that I would be able to help children with my work. I have researched social work and have picked to either become a social worker at a school or hospitality or work for CPS. Though I know some might say it does take an emotional toll on some I also don't want to just teach kids but also help them with other problems such as ones that may occur in this line of work. Overall I really just want to know if either of these two careers are majorly different when it comes to education and other factors such as pay, work load, hours and more.
What does the work environment look like when working as a social worker in a hospital or school.?
I want to work with children so I am deciding if I want to be a social worker for a hospital or school. But I also wonder how a day to day would look like. I have talked with the few social workers I know but most of them work for the state rather then the field I want to go to though it might be the same I still want to know in what ways its different and what could be similar with work load, hours and more.
What jobs work with young children besides teaching in a school?
Though I would like to work with young kids the more I go to organizations and other non-profits most are about teaching in school. Though I feel it wouldn't be a bad job as I have had hands on experience with teaching kids at 1st grade and below. I would also like to have other options to experience and look into.
What types of things can I start doing to work toward college. Another question I have is what majors work with young children. Lastly, is there are certain things that I need to work toward to work with kids or in certain fields such as being an educator or a social worker for children and more?

What job can I obtain with a child and youth studies degree?

How to Adapt my Plan to Outdoor Education?
I know what I want; I want all the "paper benefits" (a major reason why I chose the teacher route) as I call them, I want to work away from the cities & have the space to just breathe (a deciding factor on why I'm currently working towards being a seasonal forest ranger in WA or OR), & I want to earn above the costs of living so I can afford to build personal gardens, library/collections, go camping & on long drives, etc. Knowing this is what I want &/or need personally helps me filter out a metric ton of options. How I'm currently working towards that; I'm enrolled in Job Corps of the PNW. I came here for the forestry experience & to network with Forestry Services when possible. I'll be working here for hopefully two years, so that I'll be qualified to be an entry-level forest ranger in WA & OR. I'm also redeveolping many soft skills & rebuilding my character while I'm here. After I've completed my two years here, I'm going to a community college in WA or OR for an AAS in Early Childhood Education so I'll be a teacher during the school year, & a forest ranger in the summers. This way I can be paid to live in the woods & work in nature. Ideally, I'll work or apprientice in the forestry-niche through college to maintain knowledge/skills & currency. If I enter Outdoor Education & stay for a career, I want to have the 40hr-week, "paper benifets," & still have the occasional vaccation for my camping time. Ideally, I'll want to work in an outdoor school, with similar school-breaks as public schools do, but I've no idea what the mimimual requirements for that generally is, & I'm unwilling to do an actual bacholor's unless it's within my industry that I've stayed in & require further education to advance in.

How do you really know what major you belong in?
I am currently a 17-year-old in 11th grade and I have this strong feeling about working in early childhood education because I love to be with little kids and want to be an impact on their lives as they grow up. I want to teach them the basic stuff that leads them into becoming their own wonderful people as they grow up.
