[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The research summary literally says the cheap in-home daycare are better for kids than the expensive large centers lol [/quote] What it says is, "Time with professional childminders (a.k.a. in-home daycare providers) can cause later behavioral problems, but much less so than daycare centers. Childminders do not however boost cognitive skills of older children as half-days in daycare do. (Usual caveat: such boosts probably fade out, whereas behavioral effects have long-term consequences.)" Also indicates the research is mixed: "On nannies vs childminders, (Stein, 2013) compares them directly and finds that time with childminders causes more emotional and behavioral problems than time with relatives or nannies. (It finds childminders are on par with daycare, but that’s not consistent with other research.) " [/quote]
