			Caregivers' cortisol levels and perceived stress in home-based and center-based childcare Groeneveld, Marleen G., Q1 2012 Early Childhood Research Quarterly, 27(1), 166-175 A comparison of professional caregivers' perceived and physiological stress at work and at home, a comparison of stress between home-based and center-based child care providers, a study of associations between stress and quality of provider care, and examination of the moderating influence of working hours on stress and caregiver behavior, based on data from 55 female caregivers from child care homes and 46 female caregivers from child care centers in the Netherlands	Reports & Papers
			Child care quality and children's cortisol in Basque Country and the Netherlands Vermeer, Harriet J., July/August 2010 Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology, 31(4), 339-347 Cross-national comparisons of the relationship between children's cortisol levels in child care and at home as well as the relationship between quality of care and children's cortisol levels, in samples of 60 toddlers in child care centers in Spanish Basque Country and 25 children in care centers in the Netherlands	Reports & Papers
			Children's elevated cortisol levels at daycare: A review and meta-analysis Vermeer, Harriet J., 2006 Early Childhood Research Quarterly, 21(3), 390-401 A review of nine studies examining young children's elevated cortisol levels at child care and an analysis of age, gender, and child's temperament in terms of affecting cortisol level	Literature Review
			Children's wellbeing and cortisol levels in home-based and center-based childcare Groeneveld, Marleen G., Q4 2010 Early Childhood Research Quarterly, 25(4), 502-514 A comparison of levels of children's cortisol and well being in either home- or center-based care, and at home, and associated care indices and child characteristics, based on data and video observations from 71 children from child care homes and 45 children from child care centers, ages 20 through 40 months	Reports & Papers
			Downregulation of the immune system in low-quality child care: The case of Secretory Immunoglobulin A (SIgA) in toddlers Vermeer, Harriet J., 18 January, 2012 Physiology & Behavior, 105(2), 161-167 An examination of the relationships between caregiver sensitivity and children's levels of Secretory Immunoglobulin A (SIgA), an indicator of the suppression of children's immune systems, for both center and family child care attendees, for different time points at child care and at home, based on data from 68 toddlers and their professional caregivers	Reports & Papers
			Enhancing home-based child care quality through video-feedback intervention: A randomized controlled trial Groeneveld, Marleen G., February, 2011 Journal of Family Psychology, 25(1), 86-96 An experimental study of the effectiveness of video-feedback intervention on global quality of child care and observed caregiver sensitivity, in addition to a survey of care giving attitude of all study participants at the conclusion of the study, based on data from 48 home-based child care caregivers	Reports & Papers
			Stress, cortisol and well-being of caregivers and children in home-based child care: A case for differential susceptibility Groeneveld, Marleen G., March, 2012 Child: Care, Health and Development, 38(2), 251-260 An examination of the relationship between the perceived stress and cortisol levels of professional caregivers and the cortisol levels and well-being of children in their care, with an analysis of the moderating influence of child temperament on that relationship, based on data from 44 caregivers and 44 children in home-based child care in the Netherlands	Reports & Papers
			Threshold for noise in daycare: Noise level and noise variability are associated with child wellbeing in home-based childcare Linting, Marielle, 2013 Early Childhood Research Quarterly, (), 1-12 This study focuses on the association of noise levels and noise variability with children's wellbeing in home-based childcare. The sample contained 103 toddlers with their caregivers. Wellbeing was observed by independent researchers during three 8-minute episodes of regular childcare activity. Noise levels in decibels were measured during these observation episodes. Average noise level and noise variability (i.e., the average standard deviation of noise level across observation episodes) were related to child wellbeing, over and above child and childcare characteristics. Both relations were nonlinear: only when observed scores rose above a critical threshold, noise and noise variability were negatively related to wellbeing. We found no interaction effects for child gender, age, and temperament. Results indicate that noise variability as well as average noise level matters for child wellbeing in home-based childcare.
