This study aims to investigate the relationships among mindfulness, job stress, teacher efficacy and care-giving for infants and children's right in child-care teachers' perception. It also aims to explore the mediating effects of child-care teachers' job stress and teacher efficacy on care-giving for infants and children's right. For these purposes, this paper analyses the survey of 300 child-care teachers. For data analysis, the correlation between four variables (mindfulness, job stress, teacher efficacy, care-giving for infants and children's right) was analyzed. The structure equation model analysis was made to identify the mediating effect of job stress and teacher efficacy on the relationship between mindfulness and care-giving for infants and children's right. The study reveals the following results. First, the higher the level of mindfulness and teacher efficacy is, the higher the level of care-giving for infants and children's right. On the other hand, the lower the level of job stress is, the higher the level of care-giving for infants and children's right. Second, the mediating effect of teacher efficacy with lower job stress was identified in the relation of child-care teacher's mindfulness to care-giving for infants and children's right. The findings of this study suggest that child-care teachers need psychological support service and system development to improve mindfulness, to alleviate job stress and to improve teacher efficacy for the proper care-giving for infants and children's right.
