Preferred term

child care practices  

Definition

  • The child care market was largely irrelevant to professional careers during the historical period when most professionals were White men with wives in the home performing unpaid work. Beginning in the 1960s, the large-scale entry of women into higher education and professional labor markets changed this situation. [Source: Encyclopedia of Career Development; Child Care Practices]
