Children's Group as an Alternative Care Service for Preschool Children
OULEHLOVÁ, Lenka
The bachelor thesis focuses on the children's group as an alternative care service for pre-school children, in which two main goals were set. The first aim of the bachelor thesis was to find out what is the care of children in selected children groups in the South Bohemian Region. The second objective was to find out how the parents are satisfied with the service of children's groups and why they choose this alternative. The theoretical part is divided into three chapters, the first dealing with the history of the origin and development of pre-school institutions. The second chapter deals with other child care services from 1 year to 7 years in the Czech Republic. The third chapter explains in detail how the children's group works and what it has to fulfil. In the practical part, a combination of quantitative and qualitative research was used. A semi-structured interview was conducted with the leaders of each children's group. A questionnaire was created for the parents whose children attend these facilities, and it was sent in bulk by the informants. The information obtained was elaborated in the form of mind maps, tables and graphs. The results of this work may be useful for the idea of running children's groups within the South Bohemian Region. They can be used by current or future employees in children's groups, parents using this service, or those who decide to include children in a children's group. Furthermore, students of pedagogical disciplines and also the general public may increase their awareness of this service.

TRÁVNÍČKOVÁ, Veronika
The topic of the bachelor thesis is "Children's group as a tool of the harmonization of parental and work roles." Specifically, this thesis deals with how CHG participates in the solution of reconciliation of work and family which "tools" are used for that. The main aim of the work was to map out the advantages and disadvantages of the child group from the parents point od view. Its sub-goal was to identify other factors that contributed to retaining / gaining employment after returning from parental leave. The thesis is divided into the theoretical and research part. In the introductory part I am interested in the current state of preschool institutions in the Czech Republic. Then I get acquainted with the children's group in general and states its legal conditions. In the next part of the thesis are included the needs of parents concerning the provision of childcare, the pro-family measures and the issue of harmonization of work and family, which is key to the subject of my bachelor thesis. The method was chosen as a qualitative research strategy. A semi-structured interview was used to collect the data. Informant-parents, whose children attend a children's group in the Pilsen region, were selected by a special-purpose selection method. The practical part deals with the interviews themselves and their subsequent results. Research has found that parents are satisfied with the possibility of services for children, such as children's group. Not only do they have the opportunity to get back into the work process, whether it's after parental leave or during it, but it is also positive for the child. An example may be social contact with other children or work on their development autonomy, education. Parents also have time for themselves, which is very valuable. Any knowledge gained can be used as a source of information for other emerging child groups or those already associated with children's groups and what they should avoid, or, on the contrary, what parents are looking for and what needs to be further improved.
