Quality child Care

Child care is a place where adults are there to take care of your children/child , Treat them like kids of their own . There are different types of child care . (Ex: in-home child care, family child care, center-based child care, and school-age child care.)
In-Home child care is when children are in a familiar , comfortable setting. (Nannies for example)
Family child care is when fewer children in care allows more individual attention and less chance of catching and spreading illnesses and are licensed.
Center-based child care is when centers are licensed by the state , and center-based care may offer more socializing opportunities for children.
School-age child care is when they help children with homework, and offer tutoring. Help develop interest and goals, prevent more safety concerns for children in self-care.
