GROUP SIZE AND CAREGIVER-CHILD RATIO. Children's needs, in
many respects, correspond to their ages. Although each child develops according to his
or her unique schedule, children can be characterized as belonging to general age
categories of development, with each age group having a different set of needs. See
staffing requirements for each age group are inherently different. The required ratios of
caregiver and children served for various CDC capacities are illustrated in Table 2-2. In
any individual center, actual age ranges between groups may overlap. In some centers,
children may be grouped in mixed-age activity rooms. In these cases, use the design
criteria for the youngest children in the group.
