Description:
The third survey was conducted June 15 - 22, 2020. At this time, under Phase Two of reopening, ratios and group sizes for early care and education providers returned to pre-pandemic levels for children ages 2 and under. Teacher-to-child ratios and group sizes for children ages 3 and up increased from Phase One levels, but remained below pre-pandemic allowances. The survey again asked child care providers what impact COVID-19 was having on their program or business, including financial losses and closure decisions, and what supports were needed to help providers respond to the public health crisis. Additional questions about reopened centers and government grant programs were added. (author abstract)
