Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Canada, early childhood education and care includes childcare programs, kindergartens and nursery schools. When these programs are well-designed, they support children’s development and accommodate parents who work or study. About Canada: Childcare answers questions about early childhood education and childcare (ECEC) in Canada. Why doesn’t Canada have an ECEC system, even though other countries do? Why is ECEC so important? What is missing in Canada’s ECEC landscape and why? Can ECEC programs be designed as wonderful environments for young children or are they merely necessary but not particularly desirable places to keep children safe while mothers are at work? Is ECEC primarily a public good, a private family responsibility or an opportunity for profit-making? Early childhood education and childcare is a political issue, the authors argue, and Canada needs an integrated system of services. The absence of a universal publicly funded ECEC system is detrimental to families, women and children and Canada’s future. “This accessible and engaging book should be required reading for all early childhood education students. Students will get the ‘big picture’ of ECEC issues, politics and policy in Canada and learn what should be done to build a well-designed publicly funded universal system-there isn’t another book that does this.”-Dr. Rachel Langford, Director of the School of Early Childhood Education, Ryerson University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the twentieth century, child care policy in British Columbia matured in the shadow of a persistent political uneasiness with working motherhood. Charting the growth of the child care movement in this province, Working Mothers and the Child Care Dilemma examines how ideas about motherhood, paid work, and social welfare have influenced universal child care discussions and consistently pushed access to child care to the margins of BC’s social policy agenda. Lisa Pasolli also celebrates those who have lobbied for child care as part of women’s rights as workers, parents, and citizens.

Book excerpt: From the author of Expecting Better and The Family Firm, an economist's guide to the early years of parenting. “Both refreshing and useful. With so many parenting theories driving us all a bit batty, this is the type of book that we need to help calm things down.” —LA Times “The book is jampacked with information, but it’s also a delightful read because Oster is such a good writer.” —NPR With Expecting Better, award-winning economist Emily Oster spotted a need in the pregnancy market for advice that gave women the information they needed to make the best decision for their own pregnancies. By digging into the data, Oster found that much of the conventional pregnancy wisdom was wrong. In Cribsheet, she now tackles an even greater challenge: decision-making in the early years of parenting. As any new parent knows, there is an abundance of often-conflicting advice hurled at you from doctors, family, friends, and strangers on the internet. From the earliest days, parents get the message that they must make certain choices around feeding, sleep, and schedule or all will be lost. There's a rule—or three—for everything. But the benefits of these choices can be overstated, and the trade-offs can be profound. How do you make your own best decision? Armed with the data, Oster finds that the conventional wisdom doesn't always hold up. She debunks myths around breastfeeding (not a panacea), sleep training (not so bad!), potty training (wait until they're ready or possibly bribe with M&Ms), language acquisition (early talkers aren't necessarily geniuses), and many other topics. She also shows parents how to think through freighted questions like if and how to go back to work, how to think about toddler discipline, and how to have a relationship and parent at the same time. Economics is the science of decision-making, and Cribsheet is a thinking parent's guide to the chaos and frequent misinformation of the early years. Emily Oster is a trained expert—and mom of two—who can empower us to make better, less fraught decisions—and stay sane in the years before preschool.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report sets out a plan to accomplish family policy across Canada through an integrated system of policies at all levels of government that work together to support parents to take care of their children. It focuses on issues and programs affecting children between the age of two and six. After an introduction on federal promises to children, section 2 reviews the status of children in Canada, including the incidence of family poverty, parental employment, mothers and single parent families and the labour market, and child care availability. Section 3 discusses child development issues including determinants of population health and the five main components of child development. Section 4 reviews Canadian programs for children aged two to six and their families, including child care, nursery schools and kindergartens, and family resource programs. The final section examines the value and costs of creating a flexible and integrated system of early childhood care and education that provides child care for those families with parents in the workforce and early childhood education programming for all who choose it. This section also proposes a way to put such a system in place.

How are adults prepared for work in these programs? How do children within the programs spend their day? What policies guide the programs? How has the field reflected on itself through research? There are no simple answers, but the essays in this collection contribute to a creative reframing of the questions. The authors include psychologists, sociologists, historians, teacher educators, and social policy analysts.

Featuring chapters by academics from across Canada that explore the field’s history and future, as well as guiding questions to support reader engagement, Early Years Education and Care in Canada is a fundamental resource for students, academics, practitioners, and policymakers in early childhood education and care.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Noting that in Canada, regulated child care and most other early childhood services are under provincial jurisdiction, this report provides statistical and other information on early childhood care and education services for each province and territory in Canada. Data were collected by means of questionnaires sent to each provincial/territorial child care office, interviews with officials, and follow-up interviews to ensure that information was accurate. Part 1 of the report discusses the federal role in early childhood care and education. Part 2, the bulk of the report, contains the following information for each province and territory: (1) relevant legislation; (2) official responsible for child care; (3) child care services available; (4) policies regarding children with special needs; (5) aboriginal child care programs; (6) demographic and family leave information; (7) statistics on child care spaces; (8) standards and regulations; (9) funding; (10) municipal role; (11) child care planning and development; (12) related services such as kindergarten and aboriginal Head Start; (13) history of child care in the province/territory and recent developments; and (14) key provincial child care organizations. This part also presents nationwide information on aboriginal early childhood care and education, discusses issues of flexibility, accessibility, and cultural integrity, and describes government programs and policies. Parts 3 and 4 contain tables detailing national and provincial/territory statistics for the most recent information and trend data. (Contains approximately 175 references.) (KB)
