近年來臺灣生育率快速下降，我國育齡婦女總生育率長期低於2.1之人口替換水準，政府為追求生育率之提升，祭出許多政策誘因。本研究係針對臺北市生育政策中「公辦民營托嬰中心」為焦點，欲探討雙薪生育家庭在尋找托育方式時所重視及關切考量之因素，以及探究臺北市公辦民營托嬰中心對於臺北市民在托育服務與育兒照顧方面的實質幫助。本研究透過質性研究之深度訪談法進行，經由訪談送托家長及中心主任藉以探究臺北市公辦民營托嬰中心此一政策的評價。 本研究結果發現，臺北市公辦民營托嬰中心受到育兒家庭歡迎之因素有(一)學費低廉，減少雙薪父母的經濟負擔；(二)環境新穎，硬體設備及教具資源豐富且多元；(三)師資專業，能夠依據孩子年齡給予適合的刺激互動與發展訓練；(四)緩和育兒家庭照顧孩子的壓力，給予暫時的喘息空間。對於育兒家庭希望改善之處有(一)師生比例較高；(二)孩子間容易發生交互感染的問題；(三)專業人員離職，易造成嬰幼兒重新適應主要照顧者之問題。對於公辦民營托嬰中心政策之建議則有(一)延長托育時間；(二)廣設平價托嬰中心。 針對研究結果，提出研究建議為(一)比照臺北市國小及幼兒園「課後照顧」方式，設立臨時托育服務；(二)加強居家保母與私立托嬰中心管理之責，建立積極監督機制；(三)設立保母及私立托嬰中心評比機制，給予績優者在硬軟體設備之補助，打造臺北市友善托育環境；(四)定期表揚績優居家保母與托嬰機構，並給予托育獎助費用。 === The fertility rate declines rapidly in recent years as the total fertility rate of childbearing age women has been below the population replacement level of 2.1 for a long time in Taiwan.
