본 연구는 대전, 세종, 충 남북 지역의 어린이집에서 근무하는 보육교사 375명을 조사대상자로 하여 그들의 이직의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하였다. 어린이집은 가정, 민간, 공공형, 법인 등의 4개 유형으로 나누어 분석하였다. 본 연구의 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 보육교사의 이직의도 수준은 4개의 모든 집단에서 보통수준보다 높았으며, 집단별로 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 나타났다. 둘째, 이직의도에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인은 각 집단별로 다른 것으로 나타났다. 가정과 민간어린이집 보육교사는 직무스트레스의 영유아관리, 조직건강의 원장 리더십 영역으로 나타났다. 공공형 어린이집 보육교사는 직무스트레스의 행정업무, 조직건강의 원장 리더십 영역으로 나타났으며, 법인형태 어린이집 보육교사는 직무스트레스의 동료 및 학부모와의 관계, 조직건강의 교사능력 영역으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과에 기초하여 어린이집 유형에 따른 보육교사의 이직의도를 감소할 수 있는 집단별 맞춤형 방안을 처음으로 제시했다는 점에서 본 연구의 의의가 있다.
