The Childcare sector, otherwise known as Early Years care, is the care and supervision of a a child or children, whose ages range from six weeks to thirteen years. Childcare is the action or skill of looking after children by a day nursery, nanny, babysitter, teachers, or other providers. Childcare is a broad topic that covers a wide spectrum of professionals, institutions, contexts, activities, and social and cultural conventions. Early childcare is an equally important and often overlooked component of child development.
