Publications Covering the Child Care Centers Industry

Need your preferences to proceed online

Before I build the list, quick clarification will ensure I deliver exactly what you need: 1) Should I prioritize U.S.-only publications, or include major international titles (e.g., UK, Canada) that are influential with U.S. child care leaders? 2) For “circulation,” do you want audited print circulation, newsletter subscribers, or estimated monthly web visits (e.g., Similarweb/GA)? Many trade outlets are digital-first and don’t publish print circ. 3) Do you want to include academic journals, or keep it to trade/news outlets practitioners read? Reply with your preferences and I’ll produce the alphabetized list of 20 with links and the chosen circulation metric.

Example format online

Example format I will use for each entry once you confirm: Name, 1–2 sentence blurb about audience/focus, chosen medium label, circulation metric type (e.g., “estimated monthly web visits”) with number, and website link.

Default assumptions if you prefer speed online

If you’d like me to proceed now without clarification, I’ll assume: U.S.-focused but will include a few international trade titles, use estimated monthly web visits for “circulation,” and limit to trade/news outlets (no academic journals).

Timing online
