The study examined the behavior of infant's caregivers using public libraries, measured the level of awareness of infant and toddler services in the library to determine the factors affecting their revisit or recommendation of use to others, and examined the impact of such recognition on the use behavior, revisit and willingness to recommend others. The study surveyed 146 caregivers of infants who use four public libraries in Gwangju Metropolitan City on demographic characteristics, library use behavior, level of awareness of library services, library revisit and recommendation to others. Analysis of this survey shows that the factors that influence the caregivers' revisit of the library or their desire to recommend to others through their caregivers' use of the library are the factors that influence the expansion of information data, the stability of space facilities, the accessibility of space facilities, and the ease of participation in programs among the various service factors provided by the library rather than the personal factors of infants and toddlers' caregivers.

This paper constructs a real-time monitoring system that can identify the individual positions of infants and their proximity to other infants using an Internet of Things (IoT)-based nameplate. The system consists of a precision location tracking module, a data transmission system for calculating gateway location information, a service platform server, and a data analysis processing module considering the development of infants and young children. The purpose of this study is to extract information about how infants interact with each other. The information gathered through this system can be used as important information to improve the peer relations of all infants and toddlers, from neglected infants to infants with no social development problems, to more popular infants. It is possible, based on the proximity information between infants and toddlers, that the teacher can identify positive interactions or negative interactions, and can educate infants on how to improve their peer relationships. These results can be used for consultation with parents, and the information collected through this system can be used as a database to establish a system for improving the relationships between infants and toddlers.

The emergence of smartphones is creating a faster and easier digital communication society along with the existing Internet. Among the various methods of communication, the smart notification is most often used in early childhood education institutions for information exchange between parents, teachers and directors. And the notification helps parents understand the development status and curriculum of infants more easily. Therefore, this paper developed an integrated infant management system based on a web-based platform and a mobile app platform for exchanging various information on infants management between directors, teachers and parents. Through the established system, the director, teachers, and parents can check the information they need at any time, and it is possible to provide a mobile service environment where multiple guardians can safely take care of one infant. In addition, multiple guardians can provide appropriate feedback information through the collection and analysis of various data by using the infant and toddler integrated management system. In the future, if the functions provided based on the smartphone app are configured according to the user, it is expected that it will be able to expand from daycare centers to educational institutions.

영유아에 대한 안전사고는 꾸준히 발생하는 추세지만, 부모의 지속적인 관심만큼 효과적인 해결방안은 발표되지 않고 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 유아용 모빌에 카메라를 장착하여 아기가 촬영되고 있는 영상을 임베디드 보드에 전송하고, 딥러닝과 영상처리를 통해 영유아의 안전 상황에 대한 판단을 진행한다. 실시간 영상 스트리밍 서비스만을 제공하는 기존의 스마트 모빌에 대한 차별성과 모빌의 동작 오류에 따른 영유아 무방비 상황 노출을 방지하기 위한 이중화 시스템이 적용된 영유아 사고 방지 스마트 모빌을 구현한 후, 성능 평가를 통해 본 시스템의 우수성을 입증했다.

Accidents involving infants and toddlers are occurring frequently, and if elementary measures are not smooth, they can lead to even greater accidents. Rapid elementary measures require an appropriate monitoring system, and it is necessary to build a system that can accurately monitor the child's living condition and notify the emergency situation immediately. Recently, with the development of IoT technology, various types of sensors are being developed in a very small size, and development of wearable devices connected with smart phones is accelerating with the development of smart phones. By using these wearable devices, it is possible to reduce the risk of infant accidents and to respond promptly in case of an accident. In this paper, we propose a wearable system that can monitor the infant condition and present a service to prevent infant accidents.

It is becoming common that the lack of child care due to changes in social structure and family function should be serviced at society and at the national level. Interest in child care services in child care facilities also increased. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of organizational culture on child care respect for young children's rights that is needed to improve the quality of child care services. The questionnaire was administered to 340 day care teachers working in day care facilities and statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 22.0 statistical program. An analysis of the impact of organizational culture on child care among infants and toddlers showed that development culture, rational culture, collective culture, and hierarchical culture, which are sub-factors of organizational culture, have statistically significant on day -to-day respect, and child- first interests. The degree of influence was shown in the order of development culture, hierarchical culture, and rational culture. In particular, the influence of group culture is very low, which has been proven to differ depending on the type of organizational culture. These results show that the organizational culture of child care facilities affects child care respect for young children's rights. In the end, we suggested the theoretical and practical implications of this study, presented limitations and future research directions.

The purpose of the present study was to verify the relationship between the nursing teachers' perception of infant rights and infant care service. The scale for infant rights consisted of 40 items based on the U.N. convention on the rights of the child and infant care service was measured with 40 items regarding respect of daily life, respect of autonomy, respect of opinion, respect of individualism, and provision of information. The study participants were 489 nursing teachers working at child care centers. According to the nursing teachers' perception of infant rights, the right of survival was highest, followed by the right of protection, the right of development, and the right of participation. The main study results showed that the rights of development and participation were meaningful in predicting various infant care services, but the right of survival was not. This study implies that the difference of nursing teachers' perception on the various types of different infant rights can affect various infant care services.

This study aims to investigate present situations and problems of local Bookstart program, difficulties faced by local organizations in the course of them implementing the program, and awareness on institutional support system, and ultimately propose strategies for its activation. In particular, considering that public libraries with easier access to babies having highly limited mobility and accessability should be the base of the program, the essay focuses on strategies of its activation for public libraries.
