About the book

"Childcare is an issue in the forefront of public attention in the 1980s. This book show why childcare outside the family is needed as a supplement to childcare within the family in New Zealand. It addresses key questions in the provision of childcare. Does full-time childcare have harmful or beneficial effect on children? What have the present and previous governments done to reform childcare? What are the unique qualities of Te Kohanga Reo? How can New Zealand increase the quality, accessibility and affordability of childcare? ... This first new Zealand book combining a pyschological and sociological perspective on childcare will be invaluable for early childhood students and staff, for professionals who work with children and families, and for parents. This book also has immediate political significance in the debate concerning support for childcare"--Back cover.
