National Survey of Early Care and Education 2019

The 2019 National Survey of Early Care and Education (2019 NSECE) is a set of four nationally-representative integrated surveys conducted in 2019 of 1) households with children under age 13, 2) home-based early care and education (ECE) providers, 3) center-based ECE providers, and 4) the center-based ECE provider workforce. Together these four surveys characterize the supply of and demand for ECE in the United States and create a better understanding of how well families' needs and preferences coordinate with providers' offerings and constraints. The NSECE surveys make particular effort to measure the experiences of low-income families, as these families are the focus of a significant component of ECE and school-age public policy.

The NSECE was first conducted in 2012. Before that effort, there had been a 20-year long absence of nationally representative data on the use and availability of ECE. The NSECE was conducted again in 2019 to update the information from 2012 and shed light on how the ECE and school-age care landscape changed from 2012 to 2019. The 2019 NSECE followed a similar design as the 2012 survey, including surveying households with children under age 13, home-based providers, center-based providers, and staff working in center-based classrooms.

2019年国家儿童早期保育和教育调查（2019年NSECE）是一组在2019年进行的四个全国代表性综合调查，包括以下四个方面：1）13岁以下儿童的家庭，2）家庭式早期保育和教育（ECE）提供者，3）基于中心的ECE提供者，以及4）基于中心的ECE提供者的人力资源。这四个调查共同描绘了美国ECE的供需状况，并加深了对家庭需求与偏好与提供者服务及限制之间协调性的理解。NSECE调查特别努力测量低收入家庭的经验，因为这些家庭是ECE和学龄儿童公共政策的重要组成部分。NSECE首次于2012年进行。在此项努力之前，关于ECE的使用和可用性方面已有20年缺乏全国代表性数据。2019年再次进行NSECE，以更新2012年的信息，并揭示从2012年到2019年ECE和学龄儿童照护领域的变化。2019年NSECE的设计与2012年调查相似，包括调查13岁以下儿童的家庭、家庭式提供者、基于中心的提供者和在基于中心的教室中工作的员工。《响应单位：》家庭、早期保育和教育提供者、幼儿人力资源。《数据类型：》调查。《部落数据：》无。《周期性：》不规则。《SORN：》https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/09/19/2022-20139/privacy-act-of-1974-system-of-records。《数据使用协议：》不可用。《数据使用协议位置：》https://www.childandfamilydataarchive.org/cfda/archives/cfda/studies/37941/datadocumentation。《公平指标：》残疾；民族；性别认同；地理区域；家庭收入；住房状况；原住民人口；军事；种族；性别。《粒度：》保育提供者；教室；家庭；家庭；个人；国家；州。《空间：》美国。《地理编码：》不适用。
