abstract: 'For mothers with young children, child care challenges can pose
significant barriers for their labor force participation. Working
mothers must arrange for someone else to care for their children when
working outside the home. Previous research has shown that women with
children spend less time in the labor force compared to women without
children. This study used the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing study
to examine whether a range of child care characteristics, neighborhood
factors, and individual factors caused mothers of young children to
leave the work force. The results indicated that child care-related work
exits are common occurrences for mothers in large urban areas. Of those
mothers in the FFCW sample who used non-parental child care, more than
one in ten mothers reported work exits due to child care-related
problems. Logistic regression analysis further revealed that common risk
factors for work exits included changing child care arrangements, using
multiple types of child care, living in neighborhoods with a higher
percentage of Hispanic population, being African American, and having
household income between 50 and 99\% of FPL. The findings are useful in
informing social policies and interventions to help mothers better
bridge the gap between adequate child care and gainful employment. (C)
