Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of safety education requirement in child daycare center teachers. Method: The data using questionnaire were collected from eight child daycare centers located in Seoul, Gyounggi-Do, and Kwangwon-Do. Final participants were 133 child daycare center teachers. Results: The degree of safety education requirement were as follows: education need of safety knowledge ($4.26{\pm}.50$), safety education need of daycare center ($3.29{\pm}.60$), recognition about safety education training ($3.94{\pm}.58$), and confidence of safety care practice ($2.75{\pm}.43$). There is significant correlation between education need of safety knowledge and safety education need of daycare center (r=.495, p<.001), education need of safety knowledge and recognition about safety education training (r=.555, p<.001), education need of safety knowledge and confidence of safety care practice (r=.201, p=.020), safety education need of daycare center and recognition about safety education training (r=.464, p<.001), and recognition about safety education training and confidence of safety care practice (r=.187, p=.032). Conclusion: On this study, child daycare center teachers' safety education requirement was relatively high. It is recommended that safety education for them should be done for children's healthy life.
