Methods: The participants of this study comprised 422 childcare teachers employed in childcare centers across Seoul, Incheon, and Gyeonggi Province. Correlation analysis was performed using the collected data to examine the relationships between variables. Additionally, regression analysis was carried out to validate the mediating role of interpersonal relationship competence in the association between workplace social support and job satisfaction. Results: The study's findings revealed a positive correlation between interpersonal competence and job satisfaction. The study successfully confirmed the mediating role of interpersonal competence among childcare teachers in the connection between workplace social support and job satisfaction. Conclusion/Implications: The results suggest that enhancing the job satisfaction of childcare teachers requires identifying diverse social support systems within childcare centers that influence them. It is imperative to formulate strategies that highly value social support and concurrently enhance interpersonal skills.

본 연구는 육아 인력 비용이 출산율에 미치는 영향을 국가별로 비교 분석하였다. 북유럽 국가들의 사례에서는 포괄적인 육아 지원 정책과 육아 인력 비용 지원이 출산율에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 동아시아 국가들에서는 높은 육아 부담과 경제적 압박이 출산율 저하의 주요 원인으로 작용하였다. 개발도상국의 경우, 육아 지원 정책의 효과가 사회경제적 맥락에 따라 상이하게 나타났다. 본 연구는 육아 인력 비용이 출산율에 미치는 영향이 국가별로 다양한 양상을 보이며, 효과적인 육아 지원 정책을 위해서는 각국의 상황에 맞는 맞춤형 접근이 필요함을 시사한다. 향후 육아에 대한 사회적 투자 확대와 함께 돌봄의 가치를 존중하는 문화 확산이 요구된다.

This study investigated the pathways of factors affecting 173 employed mothers' second childbirth plans. Participants were all employed working mothers with an infant under 10 months old. The hypothetical model used in this research proposed that workplace childcare support, social support, value of children and parenting stress of employed mothers will directly affect second childbirth plans. Additionally, workplace childcare support, social support, value of children, marital satisfaction and job satisfaction will indirectly influence second childbirth plans as a result of parenting stress. The results of this research demonstrated that value of children and parenting stress were the factors which directly affected second childbirth plans of employed mothers. In addition, workplace childcare support, social support, marital satisfaction and job satisfaction indirectly influenced second childbirth plans as a result of parenting stress. This study suggests the need for the establishment and development of workplace childcare support and the need for enhancing the value of children. This research further suggests the need for policies aimed at increasing psychological well-being and decreasing parenting stress for working mothers who are contemplating second childbirth plans.

본 연구는 코로나19 상황에서 육아종합지원센터 어린이집 지원사업 운영실태를 파악하고, 운영 개선 및 발전 방안을 모색하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 서울, 경기 지역 소재의 육아종합지원센터에서 어린이집 지원사업을 담당하는 보육전문요원 6인 대상으로 2022년 2월 1주부터 4주까지 심층 면담을 통해 자료를 수집하고 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 코로나19 상황에서 육아종합지원센터 어린이집 지원사업의 운영실태에 있어서는 사업 운영방식의 다양화, 비대면 교육 확대, 개별컨설팅 및 소규모 교육 요구가 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 운영상의 어려움은 미디어 활용 능력 부족, 예측 불가 상황에 대한 대처 부담, 어린이집과 보육정책기관 사이의 소통역할 미흡으로 나타났다. 지원 요구는 전산 전문인력 확보, 온라인교육 활성화를 위한 환경 구축, 긴급상황에서의 효율적 업무전달체계가 필요한 것으로 나타났다.
