Research

Child Care Now Nova Scotia aims to provide a strong foundation for Nova Scotia’s child care movement, using evidence-based research findings and grassroots testimony to shed light on the challenges families, Early Childhood Educators (ECEs), and child care workers face relating to child care throughout our province.

ECE Surveys

July – October 2021

We launched a survey to gather data on challenges faced by Directors and Educators in Nova Scotia’s early learning and child care sector. After collecting responses, we created accessible infographics to share on our social media plaforms, and further disseminated findings through the Child Care Now Nova Scotia website.

Candidate Surveys

In advance of the provincial election, Child Care Now Nova Scotia conducted an assessment of major party leaders’ responses to child care issues. After receiving responses from the NDP, PC, and Liberal parties, we shared the information on social media platforms, developing informative infographics to provide a comparative summary of their positions to our membership and community.
