Child care ratios

Family child care homes have a smaller child to adult ratios then childcare centers. Smaller ratios and continuity of care are very important for a child to create a special bond with caregivers.

The child needs to create this bond so that they can feel secure and safe. When a child does not feel safe his sleeping, eating and social development can be affected. Usually at daycare centers, the staff has a high turnover. That means that your child is usually not with the same caregiver for long and this can affect bonding.

A family child care provider is always with the child and this is a wonderful way to insure that the child can form an attachment with a caregiver other then his parents. The bonds your child makes in the first few years of life can affect them as adults.
