    Extractions: New User About the Agency What's New Quick Index ... Career Opportunities You are here: Home wrkfam html In today's society, more and more families are relying on some type of childcare arrangement in order to meet the competing demands of work and family. In 1997, 29.1 million U.S. families had children under the age of 14. In more than half of these families, either both parents worked or the family was headed by a single working parent. Three out of five mothers with children under age six work outside the home. Whether by choice or by necessity, balancing the competing demands of work and child care is one of the most challenging undertakings that a family can have. The Child Care Resources Handbook is intended to introduce you - employers and employees - to a number of organizations and resources that can help you meet that challenge. This handbook was developed primarily to put employees in touch with the many free resource organizations and agencies around the country that can help them meet their childcare needs. It provides practical tips on how to find quality child care, and places to call for further information on related topics, such as obtaining financial assistance. It includes questions to ask during the initial telephone screening and a checklist of things to observe when visiting childcare centers or homes. It also provides several directories of resources around the country that can help parents learn about quality child care, including:

84. DoD Child Care - Why Parents Choose Military Child Care
    Ward and Sandy Holcomb at Andrews Air Force Base and Nell Yost at Anacostia feel it s part of their job to put parents at ease with their child care choice.  
    http://www.defenselink.mil/specials/childcare/choose.html
    
    Extractions: American Forces Press Service WASHINGTON Cost and convenience may be why military parents first choose their base child development center, but it's the quality of care their children receive that keeps them there. It wasn't long ago that military child care centers were little more than glorified baby-sitting services. That is, if the base had a center. DoD's more than 1.4 million active duty members who are parents to 1.3 million children demanded change, according to DoD officials. Nowadays, most installations have waiting lists for their centers, and more centers are being built to meet the demand for care. Improvements took time, but they were necessary, said Linda Tully, director of the child development center at U.S. Naval Station Anacostia, Washington, D.C. "We certainly need to give our military personnel our very best to make it possible for them to defend the country and do their jobs," Tully said. Air Force Staff Sgt. Barbara Smejkal, a single parent and an information manager at Andrews Air Force Base, Md., is grateful for the quality care DoD centers provide her daughter.

    Extractions: nolaFlash.com Quality Child Care: What Parents Can Do At The Center Your Child Attends: Visit during the day. Organize a rotation with other parents. Arrange with employers to get an occasional hour to "drop in." Look for efforts ensuring quality development, such as accreditation by NAEYC, the National Association for the Education of Young Children. Also look for involvement with other agencies that offer training and advocate quality care, including LAEYC – the Louisiana Association for the Education of Young Children – and Child Care Resources. Work to fight the cycle of "low fees = low salaries = low standards." Get involved in fund raising or help out during the day –with snacks, transportation, whatever is best for you. Communicate with the center staff and directors to give yourself insight into the program, to track your child’s development and to ensure a good working relationship with caregivers. Communicate with other parents to create a joint awareness of the child care facility – so that more parents become involved with the center, in an effort to enhance the quality of their service.
