## Research questions

### What counts as informal in-home child care?

ChildCare.gov includes care by a relative, friend, neighbor, babysitter or nanny in a child's or caregiver's home. The exact setting and arrangement matter when comparing services advertised under one label.

No. In the United States, ChildCare.gov says many informal in-home providers are not licensed and may not be monitored for background checks or training. Ask what checks actually occurred for the individual caregiver.

### What should the daily handoff include?

Give the caregiver an agreed routine, contact route and permission boundary, then ask for a clear update on the day. Head Start places family partnership at the center of care practice; the exact home arrangement still needs direct agreement.

### How is supervision different from simply being present?
