Stall holders(小摊贩) at bustling night market in Dongyang, Zhejiang province, now have one less thing to worry about after the local trade union federation helped establish a child care center, which spend the same amount of time on a daily basis tending their youngsters as they do (earn) bread and butter at night.
The center (launch) in June on Zhenxing Road to help relieve the pressure on many of those running its 435 street stalls, many of are migrant workers from around the country local relatives to help take care of their children.
During a visit (early) this year to the crowded and noisy market in the (city) Wuning subdistrict, Mao Fenghua, head of the local trade union federation, found a child doing homework near a street stall. "The night market is noisy and crowded. It is hard for the children to keep their attention (focus) on their studies with all the noise, and the parents will never be able to concentrate on their business they have to look after their children," she said.
Mao visited every stall along the road to learn about (convenient) facing the parents. One of these was Xia Qiongfang, from Hubei province, who sells screen protectors for mobile devices at the night market alongside her husband.
