This article examines the participation of Navajo fathers and mothers in early caregiving tasks and the amount of social support they received regarding the care of their infants. The study found that fathers were highly involved with young children but spent less time in direct caregiving tasks than mothers. It also found that both mothers and fathers received significantly more extrafamilial and/or institutional sources of support than family support for early caregiving activities.
