Daycare, child development & learning outcomes CSER-WP1 @ May 2011

This paper examines the effects of daycare on child development, focusing on learning outcomes for socially disadvantaged children. The study utilizes a randomized controlled trial design across 30 daycare centers and over 3,000 children, addressing key aspects such as preschool quality, emotional development, and behavioral outcomes. It highlights the connections between daycare exposure and academic performance, while also grappling with challenges in measuring socio-emotional growth using validated tools. The research aims to inform policies and practices that support early childhood education.
