Child Care Aware: Child Care in America, State Fact Sheets, 2016
Every week in the United States, child care providers care for nearly 11 million children younger than age 5 whose parents are working. On average, these children spend 36 hours a week in child care, and one quarter (nearly 3 million) are in multiple child care arrangements due to the traditional and nontraditional working hours of their parents.1
Research has continually illustrated the importance of quality early experiences in achieving good health, especially within the most vulnerable populations. Families, child care providers and state and federal policymakers share responsibility for the safety and wellbeing of children while they are in child care settings. Basic state requirements and oversight help lay the foundation necessary to protect children and promote their healthy development while in child care.
