Brief description Over 100,000 children attend family day care in the homes of 12,000 providers in Australia. Family day carers work under challenging conditions and many carers leave the profession annually. The working conditions, mental health and job stress of family day carers and how their mental health may relate to quality of care has not been investigated. This PhD study will examine these issues and explore if and how a systems approach can improve family day carer mental health and job satisfaction.
