The decision to return to work and leave infants and toddlers in the care of childcare providers can be excruciating for families. Reliable answers regarding the developmental impacts of different caregiving arrangements have been hard to come by—even after the federal government decided that it was going to conduct what was supposed to be a definitive study: The National Institute of Child Health and Development’s Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development. Over 200 publications have come from this study alone, and, as might be expected, the results of this massive study are hard to boil down into a sound bite. The results of this study and others are summarized, and the “It Depends” section explains how the best childcare choice for an individual child might change according to that child’s temperament and other factors.

AbstractA fundamental question in the discipline of developmental psychopathology is whether early interpersonal experiences influence maladaptation in enduring or transient ways. We address this issue by applying a structural modeling approach developed by us to examine data from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development on maternal sensitivity in the first 3 years of life and its association with symptoms of psychopathology through age 15. Results suggest that there may be enduring effects of early caregiving experiences on symptomatology as rated by teachers, although such effects were not found for maternal report. Additional analyses indicated that enduring associations found via teacher report could not be fully accounted for by continuity in caregiving experiences or by early contextual adversity.
