Abstract
In this research, the effects of perceived social support, job satisfaction, and the establishment of boundaries between a family day care (FDC) provider's nuclear family and her FDC system were studied in tandem with demographic factors to provide a possible explanation for the high turnover rate among FDC providers. Analysis of the data gathered from a mail survey of over 300 currently and formerly registered FDC providers in Delaware suggests that nonstable providers are more likely to have their own young children at home. Stable providers are more likely to report high levels of job satisfaction, to work longer hours, and to have previously held child-related jobs.
