DISCUSSION TO RUN FOR BILL ON BABYSITTING SERVICES

Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ A public discussion will run January 28 in the Civil Hall to consider a draft law on introducing babysitting services in Mongolia. The bill has been initiated by the President Ts.Elbegdorj. According to a survey, three out of ten children aged 2-5 years are left home alone due to lack of kindergartens. It puts them in a high risk in terms of safety, so the bill aims to set up standards for care service for 1.6-3 years kids. If this draft is adopted, babysitters will care for 60 thousand "home-alone" children.
