Infants and Toddlers in Child Care
This is a joint policy brief from ZERO TO THREE and the National Center for Law and Social Policy (CLASP) on creating supports for, and expanding access to, quality child care for infants and toddlers.

Starting as early as infancy, high quality child care affects a child’s ability to succeed in school, to develop relationships, and to master social competence. Learn what elements are essential for high-quality infant and toddler care and how we can provide them for all children.
