A survey of nearly 2,500 families provides a detailed account of formal and informal child care arrangements for Minnesota children, from infants through age 14. The study covers issues such as quality, affordability, availability, and work-related concerns. The survey, conducted in 1999, includes a detailed child care "diary" for the entire previous week. A rough copy of the interview questionnaire (with CATI notation) is available to other researchers; send requests to: research@wilder.org.
