Abstract:

This article is written from the perspective of the director of Early Childhood Services at the Bellefaire-Jewish Children’s Bureau in Cleveland, Ohio. She states that one of the bureau’s most important services is to help parents think through the child care options available to them. She finds that many parents have not realized the adjustment a child may encounter when placed in regular all-day substitute care.
