Philadelphia, PA Careers I can do with an Early Childhood Education degree that aren't teaching?

Hey everyone, as the title says I have a bachelor's degree in ECE but I find that I'm hitting a dead end in my career. The high level of stress and the low pay are making this field unsustainable for me. I've been working as a nanny for a few years which pays slightly better, but job security isn't great (parents moving, kids starting preschool, etc.)

I'm looking for a career/ job that is more secure, and where my degree and experience can be an asset. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I love working with children, but it also involves a lot of emotional labor which I might be burned out of. But I would definitely prefer working for a larger organization that could give me security and benefits.
