Child Care: Arrangements and Costs.
Veum, Jonathan R.; Gleason, Philip M.
Monthly Labor Review, v114 n10 p10-17 Oct 1991
Data from the National Longitudinal Survey show that most employed mothers rely on relatives for child care, particularly low-income mothers. Weekly expenditures averaged $45 for older mothers to $60 for younger mothers. Lower-income women were more likely to have gaps in employment because of child care problems. (SK)
