Assumptions influence behavior. What are the§implications for the care of children and§youth-of the assumptions that child care workers§bring to their profession? Assumptions in four areas§of care are studied: routine and the value of§consistency, safety, and predictability, nurture as§relationships and attachments are formed, social§skill development as a function of socialization, and§discipline as a tool of development. An emergent§category of care is that of co-worker support.§Follow-up, unanticipated initially, became the most§significant outcome of this study. Follow-up is both§an assumption about care--how to provide it and an§act of care in that child care workers do so. It is§necessary to account for child care worker§assumptions about care as these assumptions are§enacted by the worker as he or she interprets the§program they are trained to follow. The significance§of follow-up is heightened because it oftens happens§informally and interpersonnally with lasting§implications for the service provided.
