Central State Child Care Policies In Postauthoritarian Spain

Implications for Gender and Carework Arrangements

Celia Valiente

Universidad Carlos III de Madrid

In Spain, public preschool programs have continuously expanded in the past three decades. However, this education policy has done little to support increases in the proportion of women in the paid workforce. Preschool is not child care because the former does not address the care needed by children younger than three years old and offers programs with short hours and long holidays.

Key Words: child care • preschool • women’s movement • gender • Spain
