This technical report accompanies the "Listed Home-Based Child Care Providers and Child Care and Early Education Policies Series." This series of three research briefs presents findings from the first nationally representative analysis of the patterns and predictors of listed home-based child care (HBCC) providers' interactions with child care and early education (CCEE) policies in the United States (Schochet et al. 2024a, 2024b; Porter et al. 2024). The first brief presents findings on HBCC providers' reported participation and recent progress in state Quality Rating and Improvement Systems (QRISs), which assess the quality of and support quality improvement in CCEE settings. The second brief presents findings on HBCC providers' reported receipt of funding from, preferences for, and payment arrangements related to the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF), which provides funding to states to subsidize CCEE costs for families with low incomes. The third brief shares findings on HBCC providers' reported interactions with, perceptions of, and responses to state-administered regulations that set and enforce minimum standards related to health and safety in CCEE settings. This technical report provides more details about methods used in the series, full results tables for the main analyses, and supplementary analyses that support the main results. The findings and their implications are only described in the briefs.
