The purpose of this study is to examine the predictors of formal, early child care usage and to study the differences between immigrant and nonimmigrant families in their use of formal (center-based, preschool, Head Start, and family child care) and informal child care arrangements (grandparent and nanny) among California's children. Since the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) had children from California's immigrant and nonimmigrant families, the data for 897 preschool age children who attended child care for 10 h or more were retrieved from the CHIS 2005 Child Survey. This study found that immigrants are twice more likely (OR = 2.006; p \ 0.005) to use formal child care than nonimmigrant families in California. The study concludes with implications for social work.

Consequently, the proportion of immigrants who are religious minorities has increased (Eck, 2002).…”
