Paper Summary:

This is a research paper which explores the possibilities of considering community childcare options in the mix of city planning. It examines case studies of companies that have instituted company-based childcare and reviews the successes and failures of these programs. The paper concludes with the finding that companies benefit by sponsoring child care programs and that these programs can be easily instituted in the urban planning setting.

From the Paper:

"The needs of cities are changing also and many have pointed out that what worked in the past no longer worked now. City planing has evolved from deciding where to place the buildings and roads to looking more closely at the needs of the communities that make up the city. Many of these plans focus on the inner city where there are many women that cannot work due to the needs of having to care for their children. They cannot afford childcare and cannot go out of their community to obtain it. Recently there has been a movement towards designing cities around a community center. The proposed research will explore the successes and failures of company based childcare and will make recommendations as to how company based childcare can become a part of urban planning as well."
