The course of human history over millennia shows raising a child takes a village.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>It takes a village<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Both nature and nurture influence successful development in children. Nature stems from biological factors children inherit from parents. Nurture is the environment children are exposed to. This is influenced by parents, siblings and caregivers in the home, as well as educators and peers in early education and care settings, and the broader community.<\/p>\n<p>Young children need relationships with parents and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/46y5eh11fhgw3ve3ytpwxt9r-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/03\/InBrief-The-Science-of-Early-Childhood-Development2.pdf\">other caregivers<\/a>\u00a0in society to develop important social and cognitive skills.

This highlights its focus on children\u2019s relationships, social skills and becoming members of society.<\/p>\n<p>There is no one size fits all guide for parenting as each family is different.<\/p>\n<p>At times, parenting can be challenging with competing demands and responsibilities. Many of these can have an effect on children, and families could need support. Parents with mental and physical health challenges may sometimes be\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aihw.gov.au\/getmedia\/6af928d6-692e-4449-b915-cf2ca946982f\/aihw-cws-69-print-report.pdf.aspx?inline=true\">less able than others to engage<\/a>\u00a0their child in typical childhood activities without assistance from the community.<\/p>\n<p>The community includes many important supports to raise children such as relatives, health and parenting services.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/1-in-3-new-mums-struggle-to-get-their-baby-to-sleep-but-some-women-have-a-tougher-time-102269\">study of women<\/a>\u00a0who required admission to residential parenting services (around 80% needed help to settle the child) found over half had a history of mental health issues. The study\u2019s authors noted Australian women were not routinely receiving the psychological and social help they needed. They wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Parents have lost the village it takes to raise a child and increasingly feel isolated and unsupported.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Early childhood education and care centres are one important part of our village.<\/p>\n<p>They form a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.acecqa.gov.au\/nqf\/national-quality-standard\/quality-area-6-collaborative-partnership-with-families-and-communities\">support network established<\/a>\u00a0to ensure parents\u2019 and children\u2019s lifelong success.

In 2015, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pc.gov.au\/inquiries\/completed\/childcare\/report\/childcare-overview.pdf\">Productivity Commission estimated<\/a>\u00a0around 165,000 Australian parents would like to work more, but were prevented due to poor accessibility or affordability of suitable childcare.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Is there such a thing as too much childcare?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dese.gov.au\/key-official-documents-about-early-childhood\/early-childhood-and-child-care-reports\/child-care-australia\/child-care-australia-report-december-quarter-2020\">average weekly attendance<\/a>\u00a0in early education and care centres per child was 26.1 hours in December 2020. For long day care, the average was 30.5 hours per child, or around three days per week. This suggests parents still have many hours per week for parenting their children at home.<\/p>\n<p>Evidence shows participation in quality early childhood education for at least 15 hours per week\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefrontproject.org.au\/images\/downloads\/Cost-benefit%20analysis_brochure.pdf\">benefits children\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0overall development and provides them with important social and emotional skills.<\/p>\n<p>But there are some families who do require a lot more childcare. In 2008, a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.brisbanetimes.com.au\/lifestyle\/children-in-care-60-hours-a-week-20080729-gea6jq.html\">census of childcare services found <\/a>\u00a0757 children across Australia were attending long daycare services for at least 60 hours a week. And a further 9,426 children were in care for between 50 and 60 hours a week at the time of the census in May 2006.<\/p>\n<p>More recently,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.abs.gov.au\/statistics\/people\/education\/childhood-education-and-care-australia\/jun-2017\">ABS data show<\/a>\u00a028,200 children attended long daycare for 45 hours or more in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018, a Canadian study published some worrying findings about\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ifstudies.org\/blog\/measuring-the-long-term-effects-of-early-extensive-day-care\">risks of too many hours of full time childcare<\/a>. Statistical analysis showed significant differences in increased levels of hyperactivity, anxiety and aggression for children who attended more than 30 hours per week of childcare, in comparison to those who attended ten hours per week.<\/p>\n<p>We would need more research to show the ways these risks depend on the nature and nurture of the child, the quality of the centre and staff, and influences of the community, government and funding.<\/p>\n<p>We also don\u2019t know why some children attend long hours at childcare. It may be for many reasons, including being in the child support system and parental health. In all these circumstances, as already discussed, childcare is an important and necessary social support.<\/p>\n<p>We all play a role in raising children.
