Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to analyze and to consider Work-Life Balance of day nursery teachers, especially 'difficulties' in their consistent lives. The author interviewed seven day nursery teachers who were nurturing their children under 12. The results reveal that there were various situations among four conditions: independency, place of work, family, and social resources. The author analyzed their results taking into account both factors to promote and interrupt their continuous working lives. In conclusion, 'difficulties' in their continuous working and consistent lives are dependent on their situations among motherhood consciousness, place of work, family, and social resources.
