Here is an overview of some of the most frequently used types of full-time day care. This type of child care is considered to be one of the best types of care for children under three years old. A caregiver is hired to take care of children in the children's homes. Some caregivers work during the day only, and some live in. Some do light housekeeping and some don't.
Situations vary, depending on the needs of the parents and their children.
Parents personally choose their children's caregiver. Children are not exposed to the illnesses of other children. If sick, children can be cared for at home. Care is often available on evenings and weekends. Hours are flexible.
