For childcare services, parents raise the 'three questions about the soul'

2023-07-25

For childcare services, parents raise the "three questions of the soul": "Is it safe? Is it expensive? Is the service quality high?" To promote the high-quality development of childcare services for infants and young children, it is related to thousands of households and the future of the nation. The 14th Five Year Plan clearly proposes the development of an inclusive childcare system, a sound policy system to support infant and young child care services and early development, and includes 4.5 childcare places for infants and young children under the age of 3 per thousand population as the main indicator of economic and social development during the 14th Five Year Plan period. In order to gain a deeper understanding of the development status of infant and young child care services in China in recent years, the Rule of Law website focuses on the demand and supply sides, interviewing families in different regions on the needs of infant and young child care, the current development status and challenges of new forms of infant and young child care services, and exploring the construction of a social shared infant and young child care service system, with the aim of achieving "children have education" and "children have good education". Stay tuned. "Although some relatives helped, Erbao spent too much energy when she was just born, and didn't have much time to accompany Dabao." In May this year, Ms. Xie, who lives in Huaihua, Hunan Province, just had a second child. However, her eldest daughter is not old enough to enter the kindergarten. How can she take better care of the two children? This made her face a dilemma. Helplessly, after discussing with her family, Ms. Xie unanimously decided to send her eldest daughter to a childcare class. When the child was 15 months old, Ms. Dong, who lives in Shaoguan City, Guangdong Province, began to investigate the nursery institutions near her home - she decided to send the child to the institution in three months. Although there are elderly people at home who take care of their children, they are prone to spoiling, so they still need to be sent to childcare institutions in order to have scientific childcare. "" The four elderly people at home have not retired, and both my father and I have jobs. The cost of having a nanny is not low and not professional, so it is better to send the child to childcare institutions earlier. "Ms. Tang, who works in Chaoyang District, Beijing, made this decision when the child was three months old. The reporter of Legal Daily recently interviewed 100 families in Beijing, Guangdong, Hunan, Shandong and other places randomly, and found that parents' demands for childcare have become increasingly diversified: from no care for dual worker families to professional care, to reduce the burden of the elderly, from cultivating children's self-care ability to creating social space for children, from daily care to early enlightenment education... According to the data released by the National Health Commission, More than 30% of infants and young children in China have childcare needs, but the enrollment rate is only about 5.5%. The reporter noticed that many factors such as safety, price, and service quality have become the main factors affecting parental care delivery. More than half of the families interviewed by the reporter hope that the relevant departments will clarify the registration requirements for childcare institutions, regularly inspect relevant qualifications, and vigorously cultivate early childhood and preschool education talents. There is a strong concern about safety issues in the demand for childcare. At the launch ceremony of this year's "Infant and Child Care Week" theme promotion activity and the Capital Childcare Promotion Activity, the relevant person in charge of the Family Department of the Population and Family Department of the National Health Commission introduced that in 2022, there were about 32 million infants and young children aged 0 to 3 in China, with over one-third of households having childcare needs, and over two-thirds of households in first tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou having childcare needs. Ms. Tong, who lives in Shantou, Guangdong Province, is one of them. she
