WB : I objective 1 q#1-5 Pg 3-4 Child care types and categories

1. Classify the types of childcare programs by category. CustodialCustodial – Care for a child’s basic needs of physical, health, and safety. Home care, hourly care, daycare, etc. DevelopmentalDevelopmental –Provides cognitive (intellectual), social, emotional, physical, and moral development of the child. Curriculum based. Montessori, preschool, etc. ComprehensiveComprehensive –Combines both custodial and developmental care of the child. May also include additional services such as dental, medical and social services, etc. Lab schools, Head Start, child care, on-site child care, etc.

Define the types of care, identify the advantages & disadvantages, and the flexibility associated with each type of care.

Hourly Child Care Care that is open before, during, and after business hours to meet various working parent’s schedules. Hourly also may include babysitting, in-home, drop-off, care etc. Advantage / ProAdvantage / Pro: Could be less expensive in the end because you do not pay for the child when they are not receiving care. Disadvantage / ConDisadvantage / Con: Prices can be high for the care. Difficult to find a reputable place. Flexibility:Flexibility: Care works around your schedule. High ability to negotiate personal care and routines.

MONTESSORI SCHOOLS A private school where the focus is learning by doing, hands on, and exploring material to guide their own education. Advantage / Pro:Advantage / Pro: Freedom of movement and student choice of activity, uninterrupted 3 hour blocks of work time, students learn concepts from working with materials rather than by direct instruction, and a trained Montessori teacher is present. Teachers need at least two years of training. Disadvantage/ Con:Disadvantage/ Con: Low teacher interaction. Little amounts of free time to just play. Self-paced and individual work with limited opportunities for peer collaboration. Transition into a regular teacher-driven classroom setting is more challenging. Flexibility:Flexibility: Child attends only when class is in session. They follow a strict schedule.

HEAD START A Government structured and funded child care program promoting school readiness and success for children in low-income families by providing comprehensive educational, health, nutritional, and social services. Pro:Pro: Helps low income children to enter kindergarten at a higher level. Provides a stable environment for young children during a crucial age of development. Provides daily nutritious meals, close review of health history, medical help, and active ‘hands on’ involvement in learning.” Families also benefit from a child’s early education as they are involved in the school and participate in parenting classes. Con:Con: Funding instability since government funded. Segregated by economic status as it only targets and benefits the poor and lower income families. Children may have emotional problems from being surrounded by other children with emotional issues related to the socioeconomics. Flexibility:Flexibility: This program has open and closed business hours of operation. Less ability to negotiate care and routines.

Preschool An early childhood program in which children, ages 3-5, receive kindergarten readiness skills. Enrollment is for a half day or less. Pro:Pro: Encourages intellectual development mixed with play. Promotes and strengthens the foundation of emotional and social skills. Children grouped with other children their age. Small classes Con:Con: High cost. Short instructional time so not a day care for children. Teacher may not be a trained early childhood instructor. Facility may not be a state licensed or quality site. High teacher to child ratios. Flexibility:Flexibility: Low because your child only attends when class is in session. More of an opportunity to negotiate care and routine.

HOME CARE Child care provided in a person’s home or one that comes to your home. Often maintains a daycare philosophy. Pro:Pro: Least expensive type of care. Provides low teacher to child ratio care. Homelike atmosphere for easier transitions. Con:Con: Might not be a structured environment. Provider can go about their daily routines and tasks and not focus on the children. Difficult to enforce licensing and credentials of a caregiver. If the provider becomes sick the parent must find another place for care. Takes in ages birth to 12 so the child might be the only child of that age. Less adults watching the children. Flexibility:Flexibility: Dropping off and picking up, payments, and personal care would be easier to arrange due to the atmosphere and low numbers of children.

DAY CARE CENTER Day care provided for 13 or more children ages 4 weeks to 13 years. Offer drop-in care, before and after school care, and are not curriculum based. Pro:Pro: There are multiple adults (teachers, directors, and the other parents) watching to make sure nobody abuses or neglects your child. Your child will learn from other children in her room, making for easier transitions such as weaning from bottles and potty training. If one teacher is sick, your child will still be able to attend. Your child will become socialized and learn to enjoy other children's company. Licensed and State regulated. Con:Con: Children are influenced by other children’s behaviors. Crowded and commercialized. Ratio of children to teacher is high. When the child is sick back up care will need to be arranged due to a strict sick policy. Flexibility:Flexibility: Adhere to specific closing times or pay a high late fee. Less ability to negotiate care.

ON-SITE DAY CARE Child care is located at the place of the parents’ employment. Pro:Pro: Parents can work near child and drop in during the day to visit. Company shows that they support families. Reduces lateness and stress on caregiver. Quality care for parent. Con:Con: Child may have a longer drive with parent’s commute or a longer day in care. Costly for the company to set up, staff, and maintain quality care. Activity in the center could disrupt the workplace or cause a distraction. Parents might interfere with their child’s developing social and emotional skills by visiting frequently. Flexibility:Flexibility: Child Care is available during the parent’s working hours. Less ability to negotiate care and routines.

LAB SCHOOLS A place where teachers in training are placed in a controlled situation where they can learn and practice the art of teaching real children. Not just a daycare center, but a provider of high quality child care and early childhood education in an environment where learning is child’s play! Pro:Pro: Low child to teacher ratios. Innovative and progressive curriculum that is checked by a professional. Licensed and quality care center. Low burn out in teachers since it is not a job. Con:Con: It is a training lab so the #1 goal in this care is on the student teachers not the child. Constant turn around in staff so hard to maintain consistency and routines. Flexibility:Flexibility: Adhere to specific closing times or pay a high late fee. Less ability to negotiate care.
