본 연구는 어머니와 보육시설장을 대상으로 보육시설의 질에 대한 인식을 살펴보고 두 집단간 보육시설의 질에 대한 인식의 차이를 살펴보았다. 연구대상은 서울시 관악구, 서초구, 동작구와 경기도 수원시와 안양시에 소재한 보육시설의 시설장 178명과 해당 보육시설에 자녀를 보내는 어머니 166명이었다. 보육시설의 질에 대한 인식을 알아보기 위해 선행연구를 참고하여 본 연구의 목적에 맞게 보육시설 질 척도 설문지를 개발하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 12.0 프로그램을 사용하여 독립표본 t-검증을 실시하여 분석하였다. 본 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 어머니는 보육서비스의 질에 있어서 과정적인 질을 가장 높게 인식하였고 서비스의 질, 구조적인 질의 순으로 보육시설의 질을 평가하였다. 둘째, 보육시설장은 보육서비스의 질에 있어서 과정적인 질을 가장 높게 인식하였고 구조적인 질, 서비스의 질의 순으로 보육시설의 질을 평가하였다. 셋째, 보육시설장이 어머니보다 전반적으로 자녀가 다니는 보육시설의 질을 높게 인식하였으며 과정적인질, 구조적인 질, 서비스의 질의 세 가지 하위요인에 있어서 어머니와 보육시설장간 인식의 차이가 있었다.

This study examines the preliminary license and approval facilitation standards for improvements in quality for childcare centers focusing on the number of children, building space standards, facilities and equipment, and childcare program. Data from 48 caese was collected from childcare centers nationwide in Korea through a questionnaire and building plan. The first step for starting care licensing is to work out the ages and numbers of children within four or five age ranges. The second step is to work out the number of children as small, medium, or large considering staff to child ratios and building size. The Nnext step is to make a choice about childcare service quality classification as minimum, fair, or good, considering space requirements per child for the building, the classroom and the outdoor playground. The next step is to make a choice of space organization relating to service programs, considering the sleeping and eating area, indoor play area, toilet & washing facilities, classroom layouts such as cluster type, double zone type, single zone type, and others. Also, each room and entrance, office, kitchen, storage, laundry, teacher's area, and chilldren's area, need to be checked for space requirements and performances. The last step is to arrange the childcare program with the building and site plan. In conclusion childcare service quality will get better by upgrading of license regulation especially in minimum space requirements per child, corresponding with an increase in GNP and housing area per person. This is needed for childcare licensing in order to determine the quality level of childcare service.

This study aims to analyze what factors are associated with child care accreditation in Chungbuk province. This study examined three questions about which factors influence the accreditation of childcare centers: 1) if they passed the accreditation criteria, 2) the total score on the accreditation criteria, and 3) the domain scores for the six domains of environment, management, process, interaction and teaching, health and nutrition, and safety. The characteristics of 1,212 childcare centers, the independent variables, were commit management, type, specialized service, maximum capacity of children, registration ratio, target age groups of children, duration, and city size. The formal expert committee evaluated objective scores for 952 childcare centers. I derived the data for this study from the i-sarang Childcare Information Portal site (http://info.childcare. go.kr/). Frequency, descriptive statistics, binary logit model, and OLS model analysis were used to examine the accreditation and scores by factors of childcare centers. The findings of the present study are as follows. First, about 80% of the 1,212 childcare centers in Chungbuk province were accredited. Second, the accreditation of the child care center was affected by the specialized service, registration ratio, and duration. Finally, the total score of accredited childcare centers was associated with the maximum capacity of children, registration ratio, and duration. The factors of childcare centers influencing sub-area scores were different by environment, interaction and teaching, health and nutrition, and safety. The present study is important because it offers preliminary data identifying accreditation characteristics that can judge problems related to the quality of service of childcare centers and suggest childcare policy implications.

우리나라는 양적으로 확대된 어린이집의 보육서비스 질을 제고하기 위해 2005년 1월 영유아보육법을 개정하면서 보육교사의 자격 기준을 강화하였다. 이후 원장의 국가자격증 도입, 명칭 변경, 원장과 보육교사 자격기준 강화와 보수교육 체계 정비, 보육교사 자격취득 보육관련 교과목 및 학점기준 강화, 2012년에는 보수교육 보육교사자격검정 등 업무위탁관련 조항을 정비하는 등 보육교직원 관련 법적 근거의 변화가 있었다. 이는 보육교직원이 보육의 질 향상과 밀접한 관련이 있으며 영유아에게 직접적인 영향력을 주는 매우 중요한 변인이기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 보육교직원과 관련된 법적 근거 규정이 계속 강화되고 있는 시점에서 문헌조사와 분석을 통해 보육교직원의 현황과 발전방향을 서술하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 크게 3가지 측면을 다루고 있다. 첫째, 보육교직원 관련 역사적 흐름을 리뷰하고 보육교직원의 개념과 역할, 전문성, 법적지위를 조사 분석하였다. 둘째, 보육교직원의 양성기관, 자격체계, 재직 보육교직원, 처우의 현황을 조사하였다. 셋째, 이 모든 것을 토대로 양성체계, 자격기준, 보수교육과 훈련체계, 처우개선 및 지위 향상을 위한 발전방향을 제안하였다.

Objective: The study aimed to develop and validate a tool for assessing daycare center organizational competence and for autonomously managing childcare quality. Methods: Through literature review and expert reviews, items were derived and validated using the Content Validity Index. Data from a survey involving 216 directors and 509 teachers were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS to assess reliability and conduct confirmatory factor analysis. Results: Results revealed a 36-item diagnostic tool across four subcategories: shared values (6 items), training abilities (18 items), environmental support (6 items), and organizational promotion (6 items). A diagnostic tool named S.T.E.P+ was developed, named after the first letters of the four subfactors. Skewness and kurtosis were within normality assumptions. Good fit indices (CFI, TLI) and low SRMR and RMSEA values indicated a satisfactory model fit. Cronbach's α values showed high reliability for all factors. The tool enables autonomous diagnosis of childcare quality. Conclusion/Implications: This tool can effectively autonomously diagnose whether a daycare center is providing quality childcare.
