Definition

Percent of parents who report that they currently have childcare arrangements on a routine or regular basis for their 3-year-old child by Alaska Public Health Region.
The survey's timeframe for having childcare arrangements on a routine or regular basis was expanded after 2019, and this series is no longer updated. Refer to Three-year-old children recently in childcare for childcare data beginning in 2020.

Notes

Four years of data were combined to minimize the unreliability of measurement due to the small number of actual events. The reported values are averages across four years.  For example, we report the average value across the years 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018.

The percentages reported above have been produced by weighting the survey results so that estimates better represent the Alaska population.
