Child care, also known as day care, is the care and supervision of one or more children, typically ranging from infancy to adolescence. It generally refers to care provided by individuals other than the child's parents or legal guardians, encompassing a wide spectrum of professionals, institutions, and activities. Early childcare plays an essential role in child development and can take place in various settings, including center-based care, home-based care, or preschools.

Daycare is harmful during children’s early years.
“we don't even talk about the early years. We don't talk about daycare being bad, for example.”

Young children should receive care at home or from close caregivers rather than daycare centers.
“Daycare is the last place that littles belong. Littles belong at home with their mom, if not with mom, with dad, if not with dad, then grandma, if not with grandma, and nanny, if not with a nanny. A neighborhood small. I mean, daycare is the bottom of the bottom.”
