Shared Caregiving: Comparisons between Home and Child-Care Settings.
Ahnert, Lieselotte; Rickert, Heike; Lamb, Michael E.
Developmental Psychology, v36 n3 p339-51 May 2000
Described experiences of 84 German toddlers enrolled or not enrolled in child care. Found total amount of care per weekday did not differ by child-care status; child-care toddlers received lower care levels from center providers; their mothers engaged in more social interactions during nonworking hours than did mothers of home-only toddlers; and older mothers initiated more proximity than younger.
