Abstract

The author comments on the status of child care in rural and remote communities in Canada. She cites the challenges faced by rural areas in terms of child care, such as women working far away from day care centers, health and safety issues for child care facilities, and costs involved in operating child care programs. She relates her experience of being a working mother and having her daughter taken care of by a caregiver. She also comments on the child care subsidy program and operations of some day care centers.
