In the case of firing, are they unable to take care of the child themselves at home?
I understand that on-site childcare wouldn't work for everyone, but it could work for some, and be a benefit to them.
Other companies DO provide it.
There's a on-site cafeteria, correct? Do they worry how people will get lunch if they quit/fired? Reservations in SV/SF can easily take 6-12 months. /s

Yes, they are unable because that would hinder them from getting another job.

Whats the difference between a daycare at your work or at a separate daycare building?

They, ultimately, have the responsibility to take care of their children, rather than always handing them off to a someone else - correct?
If these jobs are so incompatible with raising children, what's the point of trying to raise children? Does it now seem wise why they companies of these jobs could provide childcare for the benefit of these employees?
If your child is not yet attending school, and you don't have a spouse/partner/grandparents to watch them during the day, then YES, that situation is quite literally incompatible with holding a job. That is in no way unique to Silicon Valley.
It sounds like really you're critiquing parents in general for sending kids to daycare.
