Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for day care in the United States is enormous and increasing rapidly. Between 4 and 4.5 million preschoolers have mothers who work, and only about 2 percent of these children are in child-care centers. Demand for day care cuts across social and economic lines. It may be a means of improving a family's economic status or simply a way of giving a mother the freedom to pursue her own interests. This book is based on A Study in Child Care, 1970-71,prepared for the Office of Economic Opportunity. From an original list of 188 centers, the study selected 20 programs, representing the wide diversity of groups interested in providing child care. These included centers and systems located all around the country—on Indian reservations, in the inner city, in mobile trailers, in Appalachia, and in the suburbs. Sponsors, too, were diverse, including employers, unions, private corporations, federal, state, and local agencies, as well as parents. The study interviewed directors, teachers, support staff, children, community people, and parents. Children and teachers were observed in their daily center routines. Budgets were carefully recorded with attention to both dollar and in-kind revenues and expenditures. A panel of child-care experts acted as advisors for the study, and all final case studies were reviewed by the centers involved. Part I of the book describes the people involved in child care and what they do: the children, the staff, directors and boards, and parents. Part II delineates basic program components—education, nutrition, health, and supplemental services—and uses examples from the centers the authors felt were handling these aspects in creative or particularly appropriate ways. Part III examines operating costs for day care, outlines start-up activities and their costs, and describes a model center serving 50 children. Part IV consists of detailed case studies of four of the programs studied: a small urban center, a large urban home-care program, a small program for migrant children, and a large rural child-care system. The appendix contains four summary charts of all 20 centers studied. This book will be useful to people who are operating, or considering operating, day-care programs, to teachers, and to parents who are attempting to choose a day-care center for their children or evaluate a center their children presently attend. As the authors explain, "Our intent is not to propound hard and fast rules but merely to point out what's working for others and might prove helpful to you."

This book was released on 2020-05-27 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Become an educated consumer with the red book edition. I Want My Mommy A Parent's Guide to Child Care and Education Red Book, is a factual guide updated for parents, teachers, and educational administrators. Written by an insider who understands the system inside and out. Provided are the tools to assist in making the best choices for childcare and education. The red book offers current international data that supports health & wellness, education, and women & children issues. Early adult and infant interactions do not just create a context, they directly affect the way the brain is wired. It is not only about what or how children are taught, but also how children are treated that determines their emotional development needs being met and their outcome in life as they mature into adults. Readers are given information on the great diversity of child day care and higher education in the U.S., and how demographics play a significant role. Reviewed are the two drivers of behavior known as 'intrinsic motivation- natural curiosity' and 'extrinsic motivation- linked to reward'. The evidence on the importance of nurturing intrinsic motivation is solid but negated, in a reward culture that is introduced into the classroom or by the parent(s) at a very early age. Homeschooling allows for customizing the curriculum to the individual child's character. Education styles for home schooling differ greatly from one another and are infinite in possibilities when applied on an individual basis. The chapter titled "Food" explains menus are influenced by the proprietor or director's personal signature, yet all these centers follow the mandatory guidelines listed under the CACFP-USDA federal program. Food represents who we are and who we will become over the course of our lifetime. Chemical and emotional food addictions are multi-generational and endemic in the U.S. Mammals have a natural born ability to parent from the time of birth. Touch is our first sense to develop in the womb, and research has shown the reason humans need physical contact is because of our evolutionary background as primates. I Want My Mommy A Parent's Guide to Child Care and Education Red Book, decodes and deconstructs education for the reader. Explained are the diverse methods, contents, and behaviors in educational formats. The book becomes a guide for parents, educators, and administrators. Whistle blowers, human right advocates, investigative journalists, and documentarians are considered as educators in the red book. Listed in the bibliography are current archives that support the quest that begins and continues throughout the book to find the answer as to 'why'? This leads into the education and behavior of adults whose professional roles are to teach, uphold laws and serve the community. We as a society and globally come together collectively to participate in a learning experience and to co-create an inherent need to consciously be aware. In the U. S. and other global cultures is a definition that requires women to suppress or devalue their own female nature. To recognize her full self in relation to the archetypal feminine is a transition of enormous proportions. The woman is returning to an affirmation of the primordial feminine. She is the banished and the one expelled from a culture that she was born and raised into. Unless that link is consciously retrieved women wander half alive. All feminine elements are innately supported by nature and earthly instincts. This represents an extreme opposite to a polarized masculine consciousness ideology and cultural environment. The book received favorable reviews from two American investigative journalists who support women's health issues and covered national politics.
