Family day care, which supplements the care of parents who retain their responsibilities, should not be confused with foster family care, which substitutes for parental care. In foster family care, the agency assumes responsibility for custody of the child; in family day care, the child's parents, the agency, and the day care mother share responsibility for the child's daily care. 1, record 1, English, - family%20day%20care

Dossier sur les services de garde en milieu familial... Ces formules de garde se distinguent des garderies parce qu'elles regroupent un nombre inférieur d'enfants dans un contexte familial, donc dans des résidences ou des logements familiaux. [Dans ces expressions,] "soins" s'emploie plutôt dans le cas des bébés, "garde" dans le cas des enfants. 1, record 1, French, - garde%20en%20milieu%20familial
