题目 Some working parents believe childcare centres can provide best

care for children, while others think other family members like
grandparents can do this job. Discuss both views and give your own
opinion.
范文 1 In the past, it was quite common that kids are brought up by parents or grandparents.
However, nowadays childcare centers and their services are very popular among parents who
both are working and lack time to take care of their kids themselves.

It is understandable why nanny agencies become more popular among parents. They believe that
they are assured when their children are attended by professional caregivers in such centers.
These agencies often employ well-trained staffs who know kids' need very well and provide
scientific and balanced food that meets children's nutrition demand. When children get ill or
injured, immediate medical help will be given on the spot, as caregivers in such places are often
experienced and equipped with medical knowledge. Also, in daycare centers, kids eat, sleep and
play together; therefore they learn how to get along with others at an early age. This helps them
develop basic communication and social skills, which will benefit them later when they attend
elementary school. 

Despite all the obvious benefits from nanny agencies, many families still prefer other family
members like grandparents as primary caregivers for their children. This is because they have
confidence in their parents doing a good job raising their children, since they have received
unconditional love and attention when they were young. Also, grandparents who have plenty of
spare time after retirement take great pleasure in living with grandchildren. To many people,
nothing can compare with such close relationship between family members, and this affection
might be a forever memory for both the care receivers and caregivers. In contrast, although staff
in childcare centers can develop positive relations with children initially, this relationship may
not last as they often come and go frequently. Another reason is quite practical, as many families
have limited budget, and childcare services are quite expensive. By volunteering as caregivers,
grandparents help ease financial burden of their children.

Personally, I think grandparents can be qualified caregivers, and this intimate relationship
benefits them. But for those families in which both parents have to work, and other family
members are not available for help, high quality childcare centers might meet their needs.

In today’s world, many families have changed to become working parents.

Modern parents do not have so much time to raise their offspring
anymore, thus parents have to rely on other family members or relative to
help take care of their kids instead. However, some argue that it would be
a better idea to bring kids to childcare organizations. Both views will be
discussed carefully. 
To begin with, people who believe that family members such as
grandparents can be a great baby-minder for their kids than others assert
for a couple reasons. Firstly, as grandparents have passed parenting for
their own kids before and also have a lot of live experiences, they will have
a better idea about childcare skills and be able to look after little kids.
Secondly, grandparents who are family members are definitely
appreciated to spend time and all effort to taking care of their
grandchildren than other childcare centers. Elder people will have a high
patience, know how to calm their youngsters when they cry and treat their
youngsters properly. Lastly, if also creates the sense of a happy family and
family-oriented as youths who are raised by grandparents will have a
stronger relationship with their elders than typical children.
On the other hand, others still argue that the childcare centers have many
advantages to youths in several aspects. First and foremost, in childcare
organizations, employees are professional in babysitter skills and are
trained well in this task so they would know how to cope with kids in
various situations such as unexpected accidents or unsafe circumstances.
For example, if children fall and get themselves injured, childcare staffs
can rescue kids immediately as they already learned the first-aid skills.
Moreover, meeting other children in childcare places encourages kids to
develop appropriate socially behaviors in society. Kids who are around
with their peers also can boost the communication skills as well.
To conclude with my opinion, even though sending kids to childcare
organizations provide a chance to build communication skills and other
benefits for them, personally I still assert that grandparents will still take
care of them the best from their love and compassion.
