Child care

In order to understand how a board operates in a child care center I did an interview with Laura via the phone from Frieden’s Lutheran Church. Laura was really helpful with answering the questions for me about the board. The director and the Assistant director need to make sure that the child care is operating efficiently and legally so they comply with all the rules and regulations set forth by the state and local laws. While holding these positions it takes a lot of time and commitment to keep…

differences I noticed between what was expected and my actual findings surrounded the gender roles concerning child care and level of commitment and stress regarding her kids. According to Arnett (2016), the mother is expected to spend more time with her children and are more affected by child birth than the father. This is due to the maternal instincts that increase during pregnancy and child birth that the father may not understand or share. The father is usually not fully aware of his…

The Cost of Child Care For many parents child care is a must. It can feel like that low paying job is not coving all that it needs to. With child care expenses at a premium, changing work circumstances could benefit both parents and children. Financially there is both a benefit and a down fall, but the overall benefit should be for the children. Scheduling to be home when your family is active can be enjoyable. It can also have an added benefits of getting to know your family and recognizing…

approval of the 10 dollar per day child care plan in British Columbia. In 2016, many families these days are not receiving the financial support that they need in order to raise families in the province, especially in high-cost cities like Vancouver. As a result, only a small percentage (20 percent) of children are currently being raised in a licensed daycare setting (“Child care in Canada,” 2015). As a result, it is difficult to monitor the quality of care that occurs in other…

variables in our business, we will divide our business into the five different segments. We will have them divided by child care, elementary, intermediate, high school, and college. This will allow the learners that will spend all day at our facility, to the student that will pay by the hour, to use our recreation center, learning lab, or get something to eat. The child care center will be made up in order to have the learners that are not in school to have an area they can learn and develop…

Approximately 60% of U.S. children aged five and younger have spent time in a child care setting (Wohlgenant, et al). Also children of that same age are at greater risk for food-borne illness because of their developing immune systems (Koehler, 129). The majority of infections in Daycare centers are respiratory infections, which are mainly caused by viruses such as rhinovirus, bocavirus, adenovirus, and respiratory syncytial virus. These viruses are all part of the common cold (Fairchok et al.,…

Involvement in Child-Care Tasks” by Brian Knop and Karin L. Brewster in Journal of Marriage and Family, in 2006-2010 of the Great Recession family dynamics changed. Men were losing their jobs and women were the main income providers for the home, “Men’s and women’s behaviors within families changed as well. Women became the primary wage earners in an increasing share of families,” (Knop & Brewster, 2015) While fathers were out of work and daycare expensive, to save money fathers became the…

somervillechildcare.com.au - Why Should Story Telling Be Encouraged in Child Day Care? Story telling is an effective way to stimulate the minds of young children. When they listen to a story without pictures as props, they imagine the characters, events and scenery the way they want instead of an illustrator's interpretation of them. In addition, children will recite the stories they learn in their own unique way as they remember them. While they are not always accurate with their recollections…

I have chosen to address case #6 about “[Indigenous] Children in Child Welfare Care” (Schormans, 2016). I chose this case because of my interest in the unique history and experiences of indigenous people living in Canada, with regards to the field of social work. I am also interested in examining the historical context of indigenous children and government intervention in relation to current forms of child welfare care in Canada. This interest is largely sparked by my own observations while…
