Does Preschool Education Policy Impact Infant/Toddler Care?

Source: Debra J. Ackerman and W. Steven Barnett, National Institute for Early Education Research, Policy Brief, issue 20, March 2009

From the summary:

This policy brief examines trends in supply and demand in the infant/toddler care market, reviews state and federal policies for infant/toddler care, and recommends policy changes that could ensure new preschool policies benefit infant/toddler care and avoid unintended negative consequences.
