Child Care Capacity, By Type (1998–2020)

Definition

This indicator represents the number of children that can be served by four types of child care providers: licensed providers, licensed school age providers, standard compliance certification and registered in-home providers, registered tribal providers, and approved relative providers (i.e., child care supply).

Note: Starting in 2020, Licensed School Age care is in a separate category. Prior to 2020, school-age care was grouped with the Licensed category.
