Many parents have shown a great interest in commencing a daycare center and they seem to be grabbing this opportunity.
In the modern generation, there are many working parents who are compelled to leave their child at a daycare center. For such children, daycare centers become their first school to learn and grasp the basic concepts of life as they step into a new world where they get acquainted with other children. Studies have shown that early years in a child's life are very important for his mental development so he becomes agile. As a result, whatever they learn, whatever they explore, whatever they accept and feel in the first few years of their life affect their overall growth and individuality. Therefore, it is very crucial to start a good daycare center where all the aspects of child's growth can be taken care of.
The owners of daycare centers have to take onus of shouldering the utmost care and safety of the kids. And, for this reason, the government has set many rules and regulations for their smooth, successful and effective functioning.
Daycare services have spread to most parts of the country and the demand for their services has been driven by increased number of women joining the work force.
The advantages of daycare centers are the following points:
Convenience for Parents:
Daycare makes it easy and convenient for the parents to leave their child as they are taken good care of. A nanny might take a leave for a day or two but the daycare centers are never closed. So, parents don't have to move wasting their time looking for last minute babysitters.
Safety Environment:
Daycare center provides a safer environment for the child. As far as nanny is concerned, parents have to keep a regular eye on her if she is treating the child well or not as most of the times, the child is with nanny only. This can lead an anxiety in parents' mind as there have been instances in the past where the children have been abused by the nannies due to stress they go through while raising them up.
Trained Professionals:
Most of the daycare centers hire trained staff that has an education in Early Childhood. This indicates that the child is in safe hands as the trained staff understands the needs of children and fulfills them efficiently.
Development of the Child:
One of the important advantages of daycare center is that a number of activities are conducted for the mental development of child which include singing, painting, kids art activities, dancing, poetry reciting, storytelling, etc. on daily basis that lead to intellectual development of child.
