Abstract

This paper describes the task-related apparel design features involved in developing prototypes for nannies. Clothes that are presently used in childcare tasks do not meet the users’ needs for carrying out activities and tasks in families. This makes their tasks more cumbersome to perform, while comfort, health, and safety are not well guaranteed. Therefore, this work aims at identifying task-related design features and developing prototype nannies’ work apparel that would facilitate babysitting tasks and minimize work hazards while ensuring the comfort, protection, and safety of children and users. A purposeful sampling technique was used to select 293 respondents. Questionnaires and body measurements were used to collect data and were analyzed with means, percentages, and Chi-square. Users were involved in the process of prototype development. The design was tested to assess its appropriateness and modified for final fitting.

尼日利亚家庭中保姆照顾儿童的工作服设计特点,以促进儿童健康的可持续发展
本文介绍了在开发保姆服装原型时所涉及的与任务相关的服装设计特点。目前用于育儿任务的服装不能满足用户在家庭中开展活动和执行任务的需求。这使得他们在执行任务时更加繁琐,同时舒适度、健康和安全性也得不到很好的保证。因此,这项工作旨在确定与任务相关的设计特征,并开发保姆工作服原型,以方便保姆执行任务,最大限度地减少工作危险,同时确保儿童和使用者的舒适、保护和安全。研究采用了有目的的抽样技术,选取了 293 名受访者。通过问卷调查和身体测量收集数据,并用均值、百分比和卡方进行分析。用户参与了原型开发过程。对设计进行了测试,以评估其适宜性,并对其进行了修改,以便最终装配。
