Daycare Center

Daycare centers (DCCs) are pivotal in early childhood development, serving as a primary indoor environment for young children. A notable feature of DCCs, especially in the Netherlands, is the use of semi-enclosed baby beds for children aged 0-4 years. These beds provide safety and comfort but pose challenges in maintaining healthy air quality due to their enclosed design, which is critical given infants' vulnerability to pollutants and extended daytime sleep.
