Ideas and Innovations In Early Childhood Education and Care is a think tank based in Watertown Massachusetts founded by Theodore (Teddy) Kokoros in 2018. All researchers and contributors to Ideas and Innovations In Early Childhood Education and Care are either teachers or parents of young children. While early childhood education and care is getting more attention from politicians and the media, too often those shaping policy and discussions related to early childhood education and care are not the people who are more directly involved with the work. This think tank’s goal is to share the research and perspectives of people who work directly with young children.

Mar 4 New Data: Child Care Jobs Recovering Slowly

Teddy Kokoros

A new jobs report came out today and overall, it was great news. 678,000 new jobs were created in February and unemployment dropped to 3.8%. According to the data, nearly 8,000 jobs were added in the child care sector, but as the chart below shows that is far below the pre-pandemic peak so the field still has a long way to go. and more investment from Federal and State government will probably be needed for child care to recover and thrive.
