NICHD Child Care Study  

Definition

  • The National Institutes for Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development is the most comprehensive study in the United States on the relationships between child care and children's development. This study is significant because most children in the United States younger than 5 are cared for by someone other than their mother.
