Patterns of participation in early learning and child care among families with potential socioeconomic disadvantages in Canada / by Leanne C. Findlay, Lan Wei and Rubab Arim.: CS36-28-0001/2021-8-2E-PDF

"Various studies have shown that children from socioeconomically disadvantaged families are more likely to have poorer outcomes than children from more advantaged families and that such gaps could be reduced by participating in early learning and child care (ELCC). However, the patterns of ELCC participation, such as rates of participation, types of care arrangements and care hours, may differ between families with and without socioeconomic disadvantages, and such differences may limit the role of ELCC in improving children's well-being and families' opportunities for education or employment. Using the 2019 Survey on Early Learning and Child Care Arrangements, a nationally representative survey that provides detailed information on child care for children aged 0 to 5 years linked to additional socioeconomic information, this study examines the patterns of ELCC participation among families with potential socioeconomic disadvantages in Canada"--Abstract, page 1.
