What research says about group licensed childcare for infants and toddlers in BC 2026 — meta-analyses consistently show high-quality licensed group care (ITE-certified, low ratio, primary educator model) produces equal or better developmental outcomes than home care for most children. The key variable is QUALITY (educator training, relationships, ratio), not care type. How Smiling Kids meets evidence-based quality markers.
