Childcare refers to the supervision and care of children, typically in the absence of their parents or guardians. It encompasses a range of services and activities aimed at supporting the physical, emotional, social, and educational development of children, often from infancy through preschool age. Childcare can be provided in various settings, including family homes, childcare centers, preschools, and after-school programs.
