Day Care in the United States has become a necessity. Since the 1800s people have been baby sitting for others that had to work, now in the 1900s there are corporate Day Care Centers as well as private baby sitters. The biggest difference is that back in the 1800s over 90% of the mothers stayed home, where as now, more mothers are having to go into the work force due to the incline of the economy, and becoming single parents who have no alternative but to use the day care facilities.
Day Care is also the second number one way to earn an income in the United States, whether it is corporate or private only a 1/3 of what they charge is used for equipment and supplies the rest goes to the state and teachers salaries.
A lot of people question the actual value and quality of day care. ... Also Day Care has actually faded out as far as it’s meaning in name. Most people now refer to it as Child Care. Reason being is it was thought that the name “Day Care” had an empty meaning, where as Child Care gives more heart and meaning in the fact that it references specifically to the child.
It is shown that one out of three children are in Child Care, either in corporate facilities such as Children’s World, or Kinder care Learning Center, or more private facilities such as Little Lambs Learning Center, and Tiny Town Learning Center. ...
Most people ask, what is a high-quality child care program? A high-quality child care program provides a safe and nurturing environment while promoting the physical, social. ... When I walked through Children’s world and Kinder care on tours. ...
Another concern with child care is cost. Little Lambs and Tiny Town Learning Centers go by the families income, I drew the conclusion it’s because they are smaller facilities, I say this because places like Children’s World and Kinder care charge by the child’s age and how many children are being enrolled into the facility. ... Number of children, number of hours per week they will attend all these factors play a part in what parents will have to pay their children to receive “quality” child care. ... Yet smaller facilities are able to charge reasonably and provide the same quality of learning and child care that the corporate ones are. ...
Child Care is under so much scrutiny because of reports of child abuse and neglect, most centers are unable to fully answer what their safety standards are other than they go by state regulations. ... In the summer of 2001 it was reported that a teacher in a child care facility had broken both arms on a two year old child. ...
In my opinion all employees of all Child Care facilities should have extensive back ground checks done, all certifications and educational qualifications, before they are brought into the facilities.
