In 2023, Wilder Research contracted with the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) and Department of Human Services (DHS), in partnership with the Children's Cabinet, to conduct an Early Care and Education (ECE) Workforce Survey. A similar study was conducted in 2011. The purpose of the study is to describe characteristics of the ECE workforce and assess educators' economic wellbeing in addition to their motivations for participating in professional development opportunities. Licensed family child care providers were one segment of the ECE workforce included in the study; a subset of family child care providers were randomly selected to participate in a mail-push-to-web survey as part of the study. In total 189 respondents working in 170 (out of 6,291) licensed family child care programs participated. A summary of findings are presented in this report.
