[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because there is more of a focus on learning now, and less of a focus on quality 'care. Curriculum planning is now required for infants. Care givers or providers are now called teachers. Give it a few years, and the shift of shoving academics into the toddlers early will pass. It will all be about developmentally appropriate play based learning at playcare. [/quote] This obsession with curriculum and learning metrics starting in infant rooms is one of the reasons I decided not to go back to work. Obviously a lot goes into a decision to stay at home or continue work, but I hated my job, was seriously considering staying home anyway, and then when I was touring day cares I just got such a bad vibe about all the "learning outcomes" that I decided that I would not go back and wait a while before searching for a new job.[/quote]
