Child before the third year in a family and nursery

I focuse my dissertation on the differences in the behaviour of the child in a family and nursery. In the theoretical part is devoted to the definition of family, its development, function and the present form of the family. Another important part of the work is the study of peculiarities of children under the age of three from the perspective of ontogenetic psychology and get information about possibilities of day care for children under three years. For practical part is main case study of the observed child, wich was created by long- term observation and interview with mother. To compare was used the observation in nursery. I focused primarily on the self-care, communication and social sphere. Key words: adaptation, observation, institution, nursery, family, separation from mother, toddler
