child development

In the public interest: The social and economic benefits of high quality child care from CRRU on Vimeo.

This paper reviews studies that compare children with non-parental child care experience to children without this experience. Two major themes emerge from this review: first, the research does not support the view that participation in child care is harmful; and second, it is important that the child care experience is of high quality.
