The Home-Based Child Care Toolkit for Nurturing School-Age Children Pilot Study

Completed

Conditions studied: Child

In brief

The goal of this observational study is to pilot test the Home-Based Child Care Toolkit for Nurturing School-Age Children (HBCC-NSAC Toolkit) with providers of home-based child care. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1) the extent to which the questionnaires contained in the HBCC-NSAC Toolkit are a reliable and valid measure of HBCC quality and 2) the extent to which the statements and questions in the Toolkit are appropriate for HBCC providers with diverse characteristics and for families who receive care from an HBCC provider. Participants will complete the questionnaires in the Toolkit and participate in cognitive interviews about the questionnaires.
