This article aims to evaluate the policy effect of the childcare policy on family women's career development using microdata collected from Nanchang and Jiujiang during 2017-2021. The study finds that the career development index of family women in the pilot areas is significantly higher than that in the non-pilot areas, indicating that the childcare policy significantly promotes the career development of family women. Furthermore, this article conducts robustness tests by delaying the control variables by one period and shortening the sample range, verifying the stability of the regression results. Additional analysis shows that the childcare policy mainly affects family women's career development by accumulating women's human capital in terms of health. The findings of this article provide important policy implications for China to further improve childcare services in the field of childcare.
