Exploration of the Talent Cultivation Path of New Higher Vocational Compound Childcare Integration

With the continuous development of society,people’s concept of early childhood education is also gradually upgrading.In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China(CPC),“childcare”is listed as one of the seven national key livelihood tasks,and the model of“integration of childcare and early childhood”is gradually being widely used in infant and toddler education.The application of this model not only promotes the development of infant and toddler education but also brings new challenges to the training of talents specialized in childcare in higher vocational colleges.Higher vocational colleges and universities should adjust the talent training mode according to the requirements of the childcare integration mode,so as to build a high-quality skilled personnel team and promote the further development of infant and toddler education.

Encouraging kids to hop,skip,and jump：Emphasizing the need for higher-intensity physical activity in childcare

1.Introduction Daily physical activity（PA）participation is crucial to the health and well-being of young children.Along with total physical activity（TPA;all-intensity）,moderate-to-vigorous physical activity（MVPA）,or energetic play,is associated with greater health benefits,particularly for preschoolers（3-4 years）,including but not limited to improved bone and skeletal properties and cognitive and psychosocial health.1 Centered on this,both Canada and Australia have recently established 24-Hour Movement Guidelines for the Early Years,recommending that.

Change in Childcare Policy and Defamilialization

This study explores childcare policy change in South Korea by employing the gradual institutional change model and in relation to the concept of defamilialization.T his study measured the degree of defamilialization quantitatively using the data of Childcare Statistics between 2001-2016 and conducted hierarchical cluster analysis.The analysis results showed that the trajectories of childcare policy in South Korea could be divided into three clusters-2001-2006 for the first cluster,2007-2012 for the second cluster,and2013-2016 for the third cluster-and there were two changes-conversion and layering.Childcare policy in South Korea has taken the path of familialization,market defamilialization,and active familialization.

Pregnancy, Childbirth, and Childcare during the COVID-19 Pandemic for Parents Raising a 4-Month-Old Child

This study examined the situation of raising a four-month-old baby after pregnancy and childbirth during the COVID-19 pandemic. A fact-finding survey was conducted using an anonymous self-administered questionnaire for mothers and their husbands (hereinafter referred to as fathers) who came to A City, Osaka Prefecture, for health checkups of their four-month-old infants. The questionnaire was distributed to 733 mothers (252 responses). Valid responses were received from 247 participants (33.7%). The questionnaire was distributed to 733 fathers (191 responses). Valid responses were received from 184 participants (25.1%). Most participants belonged to nuclear family households. Sixty percent parents were primiparous. More than 90% parents did not participate in online parenting classes or attend childbirth. In addition, more than 80% mothers did not participate in face-to-face or online maternity classes, postpartum face-to-face visits from grandparents in the hospital, online home visits, telephone conversations, or support from non-relatives. Parents could not obtain information about childcare due to COVID-19. There were restrictions on prenatal checkups, visits, and use of facilities. Most of them resolved these problems via social media platforms, cooperating and communicating with their respective partners and relatives, and devising ways to play with their child. Health of nearly 30% mothers was affected by childcare stress and the pandemic, and they were either depressed or despondent. Approximately 70% experienced positive changes in family relationships and mindsets, such as time spent with family and cooperation received in childcare. During the COVID-19 pandemic, parents coped with various changes and problems they experienced during pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare by devising solutions based on their personal perspectives.

Childcare,Elderly Caring and Off-farm Employment of Rural Couples in China

Based on the representative sample survey data of more than 1 000 farmers in 101 villages of 25 counties of 5 provinces in China,within the framework of family collective decision-making,this paper studied the effects and heterogeneity of childcare and elderly caring on the off-farm employment mode of rural couples. It found that caring the children younger than 3 years old significantly reduces the possibility of offfarm employment of rural couples;conversely,if there is 60-80 years old member in the family,it will significantly increase the possibility of off-farm employment of rural couples or the wives. Caring the children above 12 years old or the elderly older than 80 years old reduces the possibility of off-farm employment of the husbands. Whether there is preschool education service facility in the village has no effect on the off-farm employment of the couples.

Perspectives for Wearable Electronics in Healthcare and Childcare

This paper starts with a literature survey that introduces possibilities of wearable electronics (WE) in different healthcare and childcare applications. Next, 24 personal interviews and an Internet forum survey were conducted in Finland about the use of WE in applications mentioned above. According to the results, most of the people feel positive about clothes used for wireless identification purposes in healthcare and childcare, but when more information about the person is added that can be wirelessly read, the feelings become more negative. Several important points to consider before implementation of WE for healthcare and childcare environments were brought up.

Privacy of Wearable Electronics in the Healthcare and Childcare Sectors: A Survey of Personal Perspectives from Finland and the United Kingdom

The innovative development of Wearable Electronics (WE) is creating exciting opportunities for application across many industries. Two sectors with high potential are healthcare and childcare. However, it is in these two sectors where the challenges of privacy are presumed to be of the highest. In order to ascertain the personal views of people about potential privacy problems in WE application in these two sectors, interviews with questionnaires were conducted in two different countries: Finland and the United Kingdom (UK). The results indicated that the majority of people in both countries are positive about the use of WE in healthcare and childcare environments. However, when more information is added to be read wirelessly, the attitudes become more negative. In general, the application of WE is more favorable in the UK and the reason as to the difference will make for interesting further research. Several interesting viewpoints and concerns were presented in the interviews. It can be concluded that the implementation of WE in these two sectors will require the collaboration of work on several areas and the development of versatile user studies.

Location Evaluation of Childcare Facilities Focusing on Transportation in Japanese Urban Areas

In recent Japan, as there has been an increase of dual-income households and the demand for childcare facilities has especially increased especially in urban areas, childcare facilities and workers are lacking and it leads to the serious issue of children on waiting lists. Based on the background mentioned above, using statistical method, geographical information system (GIS) and public open data, scenario analysis to select transportation, the present study aimed to propose a method to quantitatively evaluate the current location of childcare facilities in Japanese urban areas. In the present study, the model of the p-median problem used to obtain the optimal location of facilities was modified, and a method to evaluate the current situation concerning the shortage or overage of childcare facilities by district was proposed. As evaluations are conducted using quantitative data such as the specialization coefficient of person trip for transportation and the distance between childcare facilities and districts, the evaluation results are also quantitative, making it an effective indicator for evaluating the locations of childcare facilities. Additionally, the specialization coefficient of person trip for transportation and the distance between childcare facilities and districts were calculated based on public open data. Therefore, the evaluation method in the present study has a high temporal reproducibility as well as spatial reproducibility.

Balance and Sharing:Women's Childcare Time and Family's Help

It is of crucial importance for professional women to strike a balance between childcare and work.Help from family can effectively reduce women's time spent on childcare.Based on relevant survey,this paper successively analyzes the time of mother,father and grandparents invested in childcare and explores how women are supported by their family in this duty.Infant and childcare can be as time-consuming as a full-time job.Mothers have always played a primary role in infant and childcare,while grandparents,offering a helping hand to effectively alleviate the mother's workload,can play an alternative role,which is of great significance.This is particularly true in early childhood,when more than 40% of Chinese children are under the care of grandparents,with relatively limited participation of their fathers.Childcare gap between mothers and fathers is even larger in rural China.It is quite common for a family to turn to nursery services when their child are three years old to significantly alleviate the mother's childcare burden.When it comes to the design of relevant public policies and projects,consideration should be given to the role of each family member in taking care of infants and children in different growth stages to explore more options for childcare.More specifically,in addition to motherhood,grandparents' support should be valued,and fatherhood should be enhanced.

Simultaneous Children Recognition and Tracking for Childcare Assisting System by Using Kinect Sensors

Developing a childcare assisting system is highly necessary due to the lack of nursery teachers, and it will make an important progress on effective utilization of nursery teacher resources. In this paper, we proposed simultaneous children recognition and tracking system by using Kinect sensors for the childcare assisting system to provide information for the nursery teachers. Each of the children is recognized by integrating his/her personal information of color, face and motion. The tracking problem is modeled as finding the MAP solution of a posterior probability, and is solved by using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) particle filter. Our system can recognize and robustly track each child during class activities. Trajectories, motion ranges and relative distances information can be provided for the nursery teachers to assist their childcare work. The effectiveness of our system is proved through continuous monitoring of the children in a nursery school.

我国托育服务专业化的现实困境与推进策略

托育服务专业化是将托育服务纳入标准化和规范化的发展轨道中,并通过巩固职业壁垒、建立专业组织和强化专业论述等方式,达到对托育服务质量标准的垄断与控制。这不仅为托育机构的市场准入标准和全程规范管理等的引入提供了依据,也为今后一个时期内我国托育服务的健康发展注入了活力和动能。由于主客各方面的原因,现阶段我国托育服务专业化发展面临社会认可度不高、效果辨识度不强、标准规范性不足、开放性有限、自主性不够以及基础知识不扎实等多个方面的现实困境。为了深入推进托育服务专业化发展,必须提高托育服务专业化的社会认同;增加托育服务专业化的效果辨识度;正确处理托育服务专业化的标准和规范;推动托育服务专业化的开放性;保障托育服务专业化的自主性;夯实托育服务专业化的知识基础。

卫生健康法典化中的托育服务:规范逻辑与基本路径

托育服务法律规范是卫生健康法治体系的重要组成部分,其核心价值是保障3岁以下婴幼儿的健康权。我国现行托育服务法律规范尚不完善,在编纂卫生健康法典时,可采用适度法典化模式,通过“法典+单行法”结构建立托育服务规范体系。在卫生健康法典中规定托育服务规范的制度目标与价值选择,在相应单行法中规定托育服务的具体制度。

当代西方国家三种类型婴幼儿托育服务模式比较与启示

丹麦学者安德森根据对政府、家庭、市场三者关系的不同理解,将西方资本主义国家的社会福利制度划分为社会民主主义、保守社团主义和自由主义三种类型。通过比较三种类型下各典型国家婴幼儿托育服务模式的特点、运行机制、配套政策与实施效果,基于其有益经验并结合我国具体国情,提出以下政策建议:推进精准施策,精简管理架构;强化家庭经济支持,广纳社会力量;改进时间政策效能,倡导灵活休假。

社区托育服务合作供给中的多元主体关系困境与优化路径

社区托育服务的合作供给已成为创新托育服务供给方式和构建高质量托育服务体系的有效举措。通过对社区托育服务合作供给中的多元主体进行划分,并对“四元主体”之间的关系样态进行检验发现,托育机构对地方政府的资源依赖、地方政府对托育机构的力量牵制、地方政府对基层社区的责任转移、基层社区对托育家庭的权威表达以及托育家庭对托育机构的行动抵牾正成为牵制社区托育服务有效供给的主要因素。为进一步提升社区托育服务的供给效率和供给品质,需要从明确托育主体权责边界,增进托育主体关系互信;调和托育主体利益关系,强化托育主体合作规范;提升托育机构专业水平,增强托育家庭服务认同;健全托育服务供给机制,完善托育主体行动秩序四个方面寻找社区托育服务合作供给中多元主体关系的优化路径。

“后家庭化”时期城市家庭婴幼儿送托决策及其对托育发展的启示

“幼有所育”已经成为一项关系我国人口长期均衡发展的重大民生议题。我国托育事业发展经历了“两大时期、三个阶段”,目前正处于政府、市场与家庭等多元主体共同参与的“后家庭化”阶段,家庭送托实际需求和驱动要素是新时期托育事业高质量发展必须直面的问题。通过对1501个城市家庭的调查分析发现,整体而言非经济因素对于家庭送托决策的影响力度大于经济因素,且结果通过了稳健性检验。家庭区位、家庭关系、家庭职业发展成为影响父母送托的核心因素,入托便捷度能够有效推动家庭做出送托决策,通常认为的家庭经济因素反而并不会显著左右送托决策。可见,要提高托位利用率,减轻城市家庭带养负担,既要有效宣传婴幼儿早期社会化对未来健康成长的科学意义,在观念层面推进家庭送托;也不能忽视托位的覆盖面和“四个可及性”,在实施层面方便家庭送托。
