Child-care workers selected from 14 nursery schools established a research methodology based on feedback. The resulting information can be used to improve the quality of infant care and family support through the following processes: 1) self-evaluation, 2) participation in workshops (videotape recording and open nursery school), 3) introspection, 4) field survey, 5) practical improvement and 6) cooperation with families.
