Child care, often known as day care, is the process of providing care and supervision to a child or numerous children at the same time. The ages of the children whose care is being provided can range anywhere from two weeks to eighteen years. The subject of child care is quite broad and encompasses a diverse range of professions, organisations, settings, activities, and social and cultural norms and expectations. Early childhood education and care is an equally vital but sometimes neglected aspect of a child's growth and development.

The provision of care by children of a comparable age has a wide range of developmental and psychological impacts, not just on the carers but also on the person being cared for. This is due to their mental growth being in a special case of not being able to progress as it should be at their age. This is a particular example of not being able to progress as it should. There is also the possibility that the kid's extended relatives will take on the responsibility of providing care for the youngster. Center-based child care is yet another kind of child rearing that is gaining popularity in contrast to the more traditional model of care provided by families. These obligations may be delegated to hired caregivers, orphanages, or foster homes in order to ensure that the child receives proper medical attention, a safe place to live, and an appropriate education.

Caretakers who are paid to do this work often do it in the context of either a center-based care setting (such as a crèche, daycare, preschool, or school) or a home-based care setting (nannies or family daycare). Child care workers are required to undergo thorough training in first aid and be certified in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by the vast majority of childcare facilities that are now operational. In most cases, you will also need to submit to a criminal background check, a drug test at each location, and proof of previous employment. Advanced learning settings for children can be provided by child care facilities. These may include early childhood education or elementary school. "The purpose of the programme of daily activities should be to nurture incremental developmental growth in a healthy and safe environment. In addition, the programme should be flexible enough to capture the interests of the children as well as the specific capabilities of the children." A teacher or another someone with an educational background in child development is frequently the most suitable individual to offer child care. However, this position does require specialised training in addition to the fundamental abilities that are characteristic of a child caretaker.

Parents also have the option of finding their own caregiver or arranging childcare exchanges or swaps with another family in addition to the licenced choices that are already available to them.
