Early Child Care is about the very young child--infant, toddler,
and early preschool--in today's world. It grew out of a series of
conferences sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health,
the Children's Hospital of Washington, D.C., and the Committee on
Day Care of the Maternal and Child Health Section of the American
Public Health Association. Each of the sponsoring agencies
represents a focal point for pressures from groups concerned with
improving the care of the young child. Faced with common concern,
the three sponsoring agencies brought together a number of experts
in the field to pool information and experience and to review
research findings as a basis for sound planning for children less
than three years of age. The authors included in Early Child Care
are pioneers in the true sense of the word.. Until recently, no one
has tried to specify exactly what goes on between mother and her
baby, who does what to whom in the exchange, and what happens if,
instead of one mother, there is no mother, an alternating day and
night mother, or many different substitutes for the mother. Until
all that transpires between the mother and her baby in the best of
circumstances is comprehended in sufficient detail that it can be
confidently reproduced, it is impossible to make alternative plans.
Early Child Care is an effort to identify what is known about young
children and apply it to day-by-day programming. Millions of
mothers give their babies a good start, providing devoted and
painstaking care. Such mothers somehow know when a child needs to
be let alone--and when to respond. This volume attempts to define
how such instincts can be reproduced in other settings.
