● In the child’s home
This type of daycare is usually provided at home by family, friends, nannies, etc. No license or background checks are needed for this type of child care. Nannies can be found easily nowadays by visiting the nanny agency or a childcare website. The fees charged by nannies are usually cheap.
● Center-based childcare
In such type of childcare, a lot of teachers are involved who work for physical as well as mental development of children.
The daycare centers are open for several hours in a week such as daycare in Beirut where a standardized and regulated system is provided for children. The child care centers should focus on the health of the children as well.
Preschools and nurseries are also daycare centers where children of age up to 4 years are taken care of.
● In the provider’s home
In some cases, child care is also provided at the provider’s home where the children are mixed with their age groups increasing their communication and teamwork skills. This type of daycare is usually licensed.
What effect does the daycare center hold
The more the time a parent or teacher is willing to spend teaching, playing with, exploring and listening to, with the child the more socially, emotionally, physically and mentally developed the child will become. The quality of a daycare center can be determined by the cost and fee charged by them. The centers that charge a high fee can provide high-level education, food and other facilities to help grow your child.
