USAID’s Feasibility of Sick Child Day Care I work for USAID and for a while now I have seen the mothers being faced with a lot of challenges when their children are sick. As a matter of fact, taking your child to a Day care is inevitable for the mothers who are working. In USAID, we have also witnessed a lot of challenges with our workers when their children are sick. Day care is a fact of life for any parent living in the United States of America. When a child is sick a parent is ever restless as he/she becomes sick also with the state of the child. This has been that way because many Day cares do not accept sick children. Therefore, I have decided to carry out a research or a study to investigate the potential of putting up a center for sick child day care. In carrying out the research I want to establish the cost of absenteeism per employee per day, average days lost to absenteeism due to sick children and the average turnover percentage among employees with young children. This study will enable the organization to be in a better position to retain good and talented employees who time to time leave work to take care of their children. It will also boost the performance of the employees as their mind would be settled for work.
In the interview, my questions were the following.
1. How many working days are there in a month?
2. How many are you in USAID?
3. Do you have children?
4. How many days were you absent?
5. What was the reason of the absenteeism?
6.

In a regular day to day basis businesses must face a great deal of external and internal forces. Businesses have many different aspects of external and internal forces they must face in order to be successful. External forces, internal forces and trends continually make the pathway for where a business is headed and where a business stands currently.

Approximately 60 percent of U.S. children aged five and younger have spent time in a child care setting (Wohlgenant, et al). This number is increasing and the need for child care continues to be more and more demanding.

Overall daycare centers are more beneficial to children 's social, emotional, and educational development because of the center ' tighter guidelines. About 57 percent of children are in some type of child care based in a daycare center, while 23 percent were cared for at home by a relative of some sort, and 12 percent are in home care facilities (Davidson 671). Over half of children are in a daycare center, meaning that is the right choice for children when we can provide the right staff, education, social and emotional atmosphere.

Daycare has turn into a debate for the reason there are two sides to every debate and then there is what some would call the middle.

In an area where so many households require two incomes in order to survive, child care has become a necessity. Unfortunately, there are many issues within the daycare structure that impair parent’s ability to go to work, or forces parents to take time off they cannot afford. The parents who are unable to work because the cost of daycare is too expensive that face issues with gaps in their employment history, which reduces their future ability to be hired and the pay rate they will receive. Parents who end their children to day care, but the day care does not cover all of the hours needed face the issue of missing work, therefore making a bad impression upon their employer. The Daycare system needs to be more affordable and offer more hours in order to be a greater benefit to families.
Once mothers started going into to the workforce, the need for child care boomed. Approximately one-forth of children spend some time in child care. However, years later, it is rather hard to do the research necessary for an accurate assessment of its quality as a whole. There are three major types of nonparental child care; relative, non relative, and center based. Due to convenience and affordability, family-care (non-relative care) have started to rise in ranks in the industry.
