In 2019, approximately 91,000 child care and early education (CCEE) providers cared for one or more young children in a home-based child care (HBCC) setting and were "listed" by state or local CCEE agencies (National Survey of Early Care and Education [NSECE] Project Team 2021). Listed HBCC providers experience three predominant CCEE policies: (1) State-administered regulations set and enforce minimum requirements related to health and safety in all CCEE settings; (2) The Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) provides funding to states, in part, to subsidize CCEE costs for families with low incomes; and (3) Quality rating and improvement systems (QRISs) assess the quality of and support quality improvement in CCEE settings. This brief, focusing on CCDF subsidies, is part of a series of research briefs presenting findings from the first nationally representative analysis of listed HBCC providers' reported interactions with these CCEE policies, as represented in the 2019 NSECE Home-Based Provider Survey. It provides background on CCDF subsidy policies for HBCC providers, details study research questions and methods, presents results, and discusses key findings and their implications.
