Mid-day care appeared in Croatian schools in the 60s of the last century, and was organized for students without parental supervision or had problems in learning or behavior. Today, Mid-day care is organized to take care of children due to the employment of parents. Mid-day care is a special form of educational work that is organized for students outside regular classes. The teacher plays a special role in the mid-day care. He has a greater responsibility because in the Mid-day care the student's overall development is sought. The teacher can divide the activities into three basic areas of work that alternate, namely learning, free time and nutrition of the students. The aim of this thesis is to determine, through a survey, whether and to what extent the students of the Integrated Undergraduate and Graduate Teacher Studies, Faculty of Education in Osijek have become familiar with working in a Mid-day care, whether they want and feel ready to work after completing their studies in a Mid-day care. The results of the research show that the majority of students were not familiar with working in a Mid-day care and believe that they did not acquire enough knowledge during their studies at the Faculty of Education. There is almost an equal number of students who see the development of their career and those who do not see it in a Mid-day care, however, if they could choose, they would rather choose work in classroom teaching than an Mid-day care.
