Grandparent childcare: work/care trade-offs across genders and generations

This research aims to better understand how parents and grandparents are sharing childcare responsibilities in contemporary Australia and to help identify employment and childcare practices that meet the needs of children, parents and grandparents.

Eligibility

We are currently recruiting parents who are sharing regular child care with the grandparents of their child for an interview. We are looking to recruit BOTH a parent and a grandparent of the child to our study. You could be interviewed together or separately.
