Compare the data collection techniques used in each of the three articles to the Survey you created in Week Three. Also, prepare an evaluation of the articles' findings with the expected outcomes you described in your Business Problem Analysis. Be sure to correctly cite the articles in your review.
Business Research Problem Analysis:
Presently the majority of children care centers that exist just offer childcare services from 16 months. This is not sufficient arrangement and lot more has to be done in this regards. Childcare is an elating and a gratifying field, and a wonderful opportunity to have a positive impact on the lives of children and their families and helping to make a better society. But the needs and the requirements of the parents have to be kept in view to make the working families at ease during their work hours. With sustained efforts of looking after the children by providing them the most comfortable safe and best possible environments we can have a place in the field of Child Care. (Martinez, 1996)
Like in USA the rising demand of the Care centers in U.S. present a vast open field of the Childcare centers with the options to provide as best facilitates as possible. The rising parents due to heavy job opportunities in offices and industries the requirement of the centers also increasing. The present Day care centers do no meet the requirement of the city parents. Beside the lack of facility for the child of 6 moths old make it more convenient to take a decision for establishing such a care center in U.S.. The present child care centers provide the services to little elder child and they provide long-term medical care and other social services to children who are in need because of a family crisis such as divorce or the death, disability, or desertion of a parent and includes a variety of programs aimed at determining paternity. In some places homemaker services also place-trained people in the home during the temporary absence of the parent. A homemaker may also teach a parent the skills needed to provide suitable family care or may help parents in the care of a disabled child. This is not sufficient for the need of the parents who like to leave their child at the care centers. Thus there is a vast opportunity available to establish such a center. There are several Voluntary Children's Homes in U.S. providing residential care program for children and young persons who may come from the following categories:
- Children from dysfunctional families and in need of shelter.
- Children who are abused or neglected.
- Children in need of care and protection.
- Destitute and abandoned children.
- Children who are beyond parental control.
- Young offenders.
Children who are placed on probation.

This is not sufficient for the need of the parents who like to leave their child at the care centers. Thus there is a vast opportunity available to establish such a center. There are 15 Voluntary Children's Homes in U.S. providing residential care program for children and young persons who may come from the following categories:
Children from dysfunctional families and in need of shelter.
Children who are abused or neglected.
Children in need of care and protection.
Destitute and abandoned children.
Children who are beyond parental control.
Young offenders.
Children who are placed on probation.
Conclusion:
Other factors will also make the daycare operation become a success. Even though many large corporations finance and control their own day care centers for employees' children, studies show that most working parents prefer to leave their children closer to home than near where they work. Thus, privately operated day care centers in residential neighborhoods should not be worried too much about competition from the few company operated day care centers.
