In this data resource, we report on our analysis on the affordability of child care costs across a continuum of age cohorts from birth to age 12: full-day care for infant and toddlers (ages 0 to 2), full-day care for preschool-age children (ages 3 to 5), and out-of-school care for school-age children (ages 6 to 12) during the week before or after school hours, or on school holidays and breaks. We analyze families’ access to child care and out-of-school care using two measures related to costs: Affordability, which represents the share of families with children who would pay less than 7% of their annual income on the estimated cost of child care; and Child Care Cost Burden, the share of household income child care costs would consume.
