Hello, Twila This paper rocks, good job. In my finite mind I did not think about how these external forces can affect the childcare industry. I agree with the subsequent order that these microenvironmental forces are placed. Consequently, it is of my opinion, that organizations are controlled or governed first by political-legal forces. This could also be viewed as ‘barriers of entry’, Parnell (2017), as was a part of our lesson last week, do you agree? In other words, if schools do not abide by governmental rules and regulations it will be illegal for them to continue. Wasn’t this one of the point you were trying to make? Economic forces could be a large challenge in today’s society, considering families with more than one child.
This Act, which regulates the childcare in England, formalise the important strategic role of local authorities play through a set of duties. These duties require
Child care: The Kindergarten Union advocated that they would improve conditions of those living in poverty by looking after children while mothers worked, thus improving child wellbeing (Ailwood, Boyd & Theobald 2016, p. 22). However, child care was not seen as an aspect of the kindergarten sector as it was not seen within the idea of education. Due to this issue, it led to the establishment of crèche and nurseries which focused on child care and therefore creating the separation between care and education in the early
Document 3: I think that the workers’ condition is a result of natural law. I think that these children are most likely making very low wages due to an increase in food production, and therefore an increase in population. So, the children most likely have to work in bad conditions to be able to make any money for their poor families.
Krashinsky begins his argument by acknowledging the fact that a clear majority of mothers with young children are working, and the rate at which this is occurring has grown consistently since 1976. This is a direct result of the feminist movement, as a combination of factors such as higher pay, less discrimination, and more schooling, has resulted in young women beginning to view a life in the workplace as normal. As a result of this, many mothers are not going to stop working unless a policy offers them a significant sum, which would undoubtedly cost more than the best childcare program available. Instead of trying to prevent mothers from working, we should encourage them
In her interviews with woman she was sure to interview very well educated women and those that strived for mere perfection. One thing is that the men in the lives of these women were not supportive and not mentioned of much. The men and society of today have placed a lot of responsibility on a woman’s shoulders when it comes to the child. It is the woman who makes the decision or is given the task to make the heavy decisions regarding the child’s future. Because of this many women choose to stay at home to be sure that the children will receive everything that they deserve and that they are not lacking in any area. Another issue that she reviews is that employers do not work with moms at all. For example she talked about the scenario where two moms brought a solution to their problem to management yet it failed to receive approval instead one mother was offered more money (Guest, 2011). Employers are not very flexible when it comes to mothers and don’t provide the proper care that is needed for a child. Since men are the ones that don’t carry the responsibility of the child’s well-being having proper day care is not a factor for them. Then there is the cost of day care which is high and can at times not compare to what the individual is making.
This Act which is born from parent’s needs has a specific impact on childcarer's practice, but not only, as course handout 1a (2012, p2) confirms This Act is ‘for all those who are responsible for planning, running and using early childhood services’.
Within this assignment I will evaluate the regulation of care provision for looked after children. I found that two organisations supports and give guidance to schools and services which support looked after children (OFSTED and the Care Quality Commission). They are both similar but highly different in which institutes they inspect. I have analysed the OFSTED report for Pool Hayes Arts and Community School. This showed and supported the roles and responsibilities I have explained in my previous M2.
Child care centers (CCC) are referred to here as organizations. However, this study limits its focus to child care centers (CCC) of commercial in nature, where value creation through services becomes essential for sustainability.
Thesis: Bonnie Rochman argues that for the well-being of children the state should take them into their care, but Mike Adams states that for the well-being of children the government itself must make changes; it is clear that both the people and the government must change to help the children of today produce a healthy and happy environment.
The main key stakeholder for this situation would be the children as we are impacting their lives the most. This could cause strain on their families at home since they contribute to the household income and could change their potential education. All in all, these children will have their childhood diminished if they continue to be forced in the workforce, with no chance for proper
The external factors influencing a child’s development include their immediate environment, i.e. their family and their circumstances at home, their socioeconomic background and the education they receive from institutions or their family.
Some families are not able to provide childcare when they need it for their kid(s). “The cost and the scarcity of day care have helped create what sociologist Joya Misra calls “the motherhood penalty”” (Quart). Some families have to have only one income so that one parent could stay home to watch the kid(s). Single parents have to move in with their parents for help because they can not afford the care. People should not have to quit their jobs to take care of their kids when there are multiple daycare facilities.
Becoming childcare professional requires engaging in the profession after acquiring specialized skills and knowledge to provide quality care to all children. A professional is a person who continues to perceive educational qualification to complement themselves. Some of the important skills that form the foundation of childcare professional are how we connect with others, communication as key to developing a relationship and advocacy qualities. To become proficient childcare professional a person confronts many
The truth is, no matter how sweet and patient you are, there is going to come a day when you come across a parent that is just plain difficult. They want it their way or the high way. They don’t care what your policies are- they just want you to do what they say. However, as a childcare center owner/worker, you simply can’t make exceptions for every single parent- then things would be chaotic. Following are a few tips to help you deal with those difficult parents.
Over the past five to six decades women have been entering the workforce in ever increasing numbers. Some enter because of financial need and others for professional and career goals. Whatever the reason, the result for the children is the same; they are in daycare. Many
