Changes in Child Care Arrangements of Working Women from 1965 to 1971

Waite, Linda J.; And Others

Social Science Quarterly, 58, 2, 302-11, Sep 77

Compares results of a 1965 survey of child care utilization among employed mothers with a similar survey taken in 1971. The recent increase in numbers of young mothers seeking employment has created some demand for formal child care arrangements, but women still largely prefer to use friends, neighbors, and other family members for the care of small children.
