Head start is good for when both parents and grandparents are unavailable to care for the child. In that case it's been shown to provide better outcomes.

But... if there's an opportunity for a parent or other family caregiver to be around, studies have shown that head start provides worse outcomes long term.

Just wanted you to be aware OP. Others here are answering your main question pretty well...

That's interesting. I'll have to look into it. Do you have any studies to back it up?
