'`Childcare Needs in Huron County' was funded by . the Secretary of State • According to the report. the majority of 125 respondents to a survey distributed by Women Today in early. 1988 preferred 'Private Home Day' Care to eight other childcare options presented., The Women Today report comes on the heels of recent attention to County Council's rejection in June, 1988, of a Social -Services Department proposal for Private Home Day Care. The Community (mild Abuse Coor- dinating Committee 6CCACC) has question- ed County Council's decision to reject the proposal. and requested local residents tc. make known their feelings 1or-or against the proposal • Fifty-six per cent of those responding to the Women Today survey said they saw Private Home Day Care as "very useful.' while only five per cent felt it would be "not at all useful " The next most preferred op- tion among those presented in the survey was a half-day nursery -school program which would operate a few days a week That option was seen as -very useful" by 4= percent of respondents. .while 14 percent saw it as "not at all useful Survey respondents were drawn from across the county. , representing residents from villages, farms. non-farm- rural pro- perties, and the county's five towns Among the farm families who described their current childcare arrangements in the survey. the majority reported they take their children with them when doing farm work. This was recently raised as a concern of the CCACC which said Private Home Day C entefars n..accidents.invoiv- ing hildeeuwhich occur when families find it necessary to ming children along while doing farm work.
