The paper gives an overview ofthe formation ofEstonian family policy in the periodfrom 1945 to 2000. Deeper analyses are dedicated to the most recent decade and to thefactors which have influenced family policy and the main objects of discussion. Forthat purpose statistics and interviews with policy makers are analysed. The paper comesto the conclusion that child and family policy carries traces ofhistory, different institutionsand traditions. Family policy has been classsified according to time period: 1945-1970, 1970-1990, and 1990 to present. The main characteristics of the most recentdecade's family policy include comparatively generous child benefits, a great dependencyof policy on political decisions, and the development of an initially plain andsimple children's and family policy towards a more complicated one.
