Working Parents' Mental Health Improves When Young Children Are in Nursery School

by Anthony Trueman, European Sociological Association

Research on 6,700 parents of one- and two-year-olds in 29 European countries, including the UK, found that parents using part-time formal childcare had better mental health than those who used informal childcare only.
