From the Paper:

"The purpose of this case study is to pointedly examine through a series of interviews the work of one specific individual currently working in the field of childcare and developmental psychology. There is a complex and not entirely understood relationship that exists between developmental psychology, counseling psychology, career counseling, and the practical application of childcare. At first brush, these varied fields seem to have little, if anything, in common. The truth, however, is that each informs the other and has a dramatic effect on what we might tentatively call the social successes of adults. Early childhood development is crucial to that potential success. With more and more children placed in routine and active childcare for much of their young life, it is important to understand the relationship (and theoretical perspective) that these professional caregivers have with our children."
