Activity; Comment Request
Title: National Survey of Early Care
and Education.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Billing Accounting Code (BAC):
418423 (CAN G999916).
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), is proposing a data
collection activity as part of the
National Survey of Early Care and
Education (NSECE) which will be
conducted December, 2011 through
June, 2012. The objective of the NSECE
is to document the nation’s current need
for and availability of early care and
education and including school-age care
(ECE/SA), and to deepen our
understanding of the extent to which
families’ needs and preferences
coordinate well with providers’
offerings and constraints. The proposed
collection will consist of four survey
components: (1) A survey of households
with children under the age of 13 for
participation in a questionnaire on the
need for and use of early care and
education (Household Interview), (2) a
survey of households with individuals

The Department specifically requests
comments on (a) Whether the proposed

whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the

Consideration will be given to

providing care for children under the
age of 13 in a residential setting (Homebased Provider Interview), (3) a survey
of providers of care to children under 13
in a non-residential setting (Centerbased Provider Interview), and (4) a
survey conducted with individuals
employed in center-based child care
programs (Workforce Provider
Interview).
These data collection efforts will
provide urgently needed information
about the provision of ECE/SA across
the country and spanning many sectors
of care providers such as communitybased child care, Head Start, schoolbased Pre-K, family child care, family,
friend and neighbor care, and afterschool programs. The study will also
dramatically extend the available
resources for understanding how
families use, seek, and cope with the
ECE/SA choices that are available to
them. Perhaps most significantly, the
NSECE will allow the policy and
research communities to merge data
from families and providers at the local
level—where the two actually meet.
Respondents: General population
households, home-based and centerbased child care providers (including
public schools) serving children under
13, and selected staff members from
center-based child care providers
(including public schools) serving
children under 13.
