Abstract

As dual-income families become more common in Indonesia, working parents face increasing challenges in balancing work and caregiving responsibilities. This mixed-method study aims to analyze the extent to which parental demographic characteristics—specifically education level, family income, and marital status—affect parents’ perception of daycare quality that they are using. The study combines a survey of 267 daycare users with in-depth interviews to enrich and contextualize findings. The results show that education level significantly influence parents evaluation of daycare Workforce Quality, Curriculum & Pedagogy, Monitoring & Evaluation, and Governance & Funding. Meanwhile family income and marital status did not show any significant effect.

While Access & Participation is the only dimension that did not show any correlation with education.
