If you are considering putting your child into day care and are wondering where to go to get good advice on the options available to you, have a look at the following government website: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Parents/Childcare/index.htm. It is full of useful information on all types of childcare.
Also, if you are interested in reading a more academic perspective on the positives and negatives of placing a child in day care, see the Kidz Things blog for a new article on the effects of day care on child development.
With thanks to Sisyphus for the website link and the article!
