Wahid 3 1 Ningxia Polytechnic, Ningxia, China, 1,2,3 Faculty of Education, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Malaysia Corresponding Author Email: fatin777@uitm.edu.my Abstract The first 1,000 days of human life is the most critical period for individual brain development, and it is also the stage of human life with the highest return on investment. Focusing on the health care of infants and children aged 0-3 years has become the focus of China's current research. In order to promote the development of China's childcare business, there is an urgent need to cultivate high-quality care service skilled personnel. Higher vocational and technical colleges and universities, as the main position for cultivating vocational talents, undertake the task of outputting talents that are in line with job requirements. The curriculum, as a direct way to students, is a direct way to cultivate infant and child care talents. However, due to the multidisciplinary characteristics of the content of the infant and child care course, the course has the following problems. These include the problems of single teaching method, low learning effect of students, and incomplete mastery of practical care service skills. The purpose of this paper is to try to use the teaching model of BOPPPS under the guidance of competency-based theory, and to use expert analysis and interview method to construct an infant and child care course that connects with actual infant and child care positions. On the basis of improving teachers' teaching effectiveness and students' interest in learning, it will further improve students' actual infant and child care service ability. Keywords: Infant, Child Care, CBVE, BOPPPS, and Course Design Introduction In recent years, Chinese society has transitioned from pursuing a "population quantity dividend" to realizing a "population quality dividend" (Yang & Yan, 2017). As the main providers of infant and childcare services, their physical, mental and intellectual qualities determine the quality of care services (OECD, 2012b). However, the current reality in China is that the 0-3 years old care business is far from meeting the needs of the majority of families. In particular, there is an extreme shortage of high-quality applied talents who also possess the complex knowledge and skills of medicine, nursing, and early education. This has seriously hindered the development of the infant and childcare industry.
