Note: (1) The data in this collection has been organized in a way designed to reflect the existing structure presented in the Child Care Licensing Survey Final Report and on the NARA Web site.

(3) Upon conversion from the original Microsoft Access database, some formatting was not retained. (4) No data is available for Idaho. Idaho does not have child care licensing at the state level.
