Statewide survey of childcare rates in Rhode Island

Description:
This study is sponsored by the Rhode Island Department of Labor and Training (DLT) on behalf of the Rhode Island Department of Human Services (DHS), pursuant to section 40-6.2-1.1 of the General Laws of State of Rhode Island, as amended. The survey was conducted between June and July 2018 by the Schmidt Labor Research Center (SLRC) at the University of Rhode Island (URI). The questionnaires used in the survey were prepared jointly by SLRC researchers and employees at DHS. This study was undertaken to determine child care rates charged throughout Rhode Island and, particularly, to establish the 75th percentile rate. The 75th percentile rate indicates the rate at or below which 75% of respondents charge. For example, the 75th percentile weekly rate for toddler care in Family or Group Family Childcare Homes is $200.00, which means that 75% of respondents who provide such care charge $200.00 per week or less; or put another way, only 25% charge more than $200.00 per week.
