Parents' views of child care are a little like life in Lake Wobegon — the vast majority say it's way above average.
That's just one of the findings in a poll looking at child care and health from NPR, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, released Monday.
In it, we found that a remarkable 88 percent rated their child care as "very good" or "excellent."
That stands in stark contrast to the most comprehensive and most recent study on child care and child development, which rated the quality of fewer than 10 percent of child-care arrangements in the U.S. as "very high." The vast majority of child care was rated as only "fair."
