Search the internet for “child care industry trends”. Are they stable or declining in your area? Answer below. Write a 1-2 paragraph explanation and cite your source of information.
Example:
According to Quality Care for Children (2006), Child care is, for the most part, an industry of small businesses, many of them located in a child care provider’s home. In the 10-county Metro Atlanta area, there are approximately 1,020 child care centers caring for between 18 and 220 children. In addition, there are four group homes caring for between seven and 18 children, and 1,535 smaller family child care homes where a child care provider is registered with the state to care for up to six children in her home for pay. Of the callers to the child care referral line, there were 7,642 requests for searches for child care centers, 4,759 requests for searches for family child care homes. 236 callers were seeking school-age programs and 407 were seeking summer camps. 390 parents called Quality Care for Children for assistance in finding child care for children with physical, mental or behavioral disabilities. The most common special needs reported by parents calling the QCC referral line included: Autism Spectrum Disorder (14.5% of children), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (7% of children) and asthma (8% of children).
The need for programs that serve young children and their families will continue to grow. The need for daycare providers and childcare workers is projected to increase faster than the average of all other occupations.
