Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has consistently shown that infants placed in full-time child care before 12 months of age are more likely than infants who remain at home to display insecure attachment. This is because they are separated from their primary caregiver for extended periods of time, which can negatively impact their emotional and social development. Part-time work, however, has not shown to have a detrimental effect on attachment security. Long hours spent in child care and having more than one child-care arrangement can also contribute to attachment insecurity.
