We adjusted the models for each child’s age, gender, race, and Medicaid enrollment status during the window; birth order; birth weight; maternal age at child’s birth; maternal education at the first Illinois Family Study survey; marital status of the mother; availability of a family member (parent, grandparent, sibling, or relative) at home for child care; county of residence (Cook vs Downstate); usual place of care (hospital-based clinic, physician’s office, public health clinic, and not available); and days in age range.
