Abstract in brief

  • The scoping review focused on measuring nurturing care for early childhood development in low- and middle-income countries, covering five key components: health, nutrition, early learning, responsive caregiving, and safety and security, but found more emphasis on health and nutrition than on early learning, caregiving, or safety.
  • A total of 239 studies from over 50 LMICs were analyzed, revealing that most studies assessed nutrition, early learning, and health, with fewer focusing on responsive caregiving and safety and security, indicating gaps in measurement for the latter components.
  • The review identified various constructs and indicators within each component—such as anthropometry for nutrition, stimulation practices for early learning, and parent-child interactions for responsive caregiving—highlighting the complexity of measuring all aspects of nurturing care comprehensively.]
