Effects of Day Care

The effects of day care on social, emotional and cognitive development. The effects of social and emotional development are contradictory in many children benefit from attending day care and in that they become more sociable, for children who are shy, and insecurely attached children do not thrive in day care. However children seem to be attached to their primary caregivers, whether or not they are in day care. The effects of day care on cognitive developments depend very much on whether the cognitive stimulation provided at day care is an improvement on that provided at home. Day care has been shown to improve cognitive development in disadvantaged children, especially where intervention continues throughout childhood.
