-
Millions of young children in the United States are cared for daily by someone other than their parents, and a growing number are cared for in child-care centers. This research and policy brief, a quarterly synthesis of issues addressed by investigators and affiliates of the National Center for Early Development & Learning, focuses on quality in child care centers. The brief addresses issues such as: (1) What is quality and how can it be measured?; (2) How good is the quality of child care programs in the United States today?; and (3) What do we know about the relationships between quality of child care and outcomes for children? The brief also includes sections on additional research questions that need to be answered, and on what policy changes are needed. The brief includes a fact sheet on quality in child care centers, summarizing the findings of the larger report. (EV)
