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.

Book Synopsis Early Childhood in the Anglosphere by : Peter Moss
Download or read book Early Childhood in the Anglosphere written by Peter Moss and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2024-05-09 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two leading international experts, Early Childhood in the Anglosphere offers a unique comparison of early childhood education and care services, and parenting leave, across seven high-income Anglophone countries. Peter Moss and Linda Mitchell explore what these systems have in common, including the dominance of ‘childcare’ services, widespread privatisation and marketisation, and weak parenting leave. They highlight the substantial failings of these systems, and the causes and consequences of these failings. But this book is ultimately about hope, about how these failings might be made good through major changes. In other words, it is about transformation: why transformation is both necessary and possible at this particular time, what transformation might look like, and how it might happen. Part of that transformation concerns the need for new policies and structures, but even more it is about how the Anglosphere thinks about early childhood. The authors call for turning away from conceptualising early childhood services as `childcare' and marketised businesses selling commodities to parent-consumers; and for reconceptualising them as education imbued with an ethics of care, a public good available as a right to all children and families, and complemented by well-paid, individual entitlements to parenting leave. Using examples from the Anglosphere and beyond, and in a context of converging crises, the book argues that transformation of thinking, policies and structures is desirable and doable.
Book Synopsis About Canada: Childcare by : Martha Friendly
Download or read book About Canada: Childcare written by Martha Friendly and published by Fernwood Publishing. This book was released on 2016-07-01T00:00:00Z with total page 220 pages. 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.
