Nursery Schools in the US - Industry Market Research Report

Nursery Schools in the US
Nursery schools are funded privately by households paying enrollment fees and publicly through state, local and federal funds subsidizing children's enrollment from lower-income families. A favorable broad economic landscape has bolstered demand. Falling unemployment increased demand for nursery schools as more parents became time-strapped while the number of higher-income households able to pay high for nursery school increased. However, these trends were interrupted and reversed. In 2020, COVID-19 forced businesses to close and many individuals became unemployed, thus having more free time to dedicate to their children, reducing industry demand. Unfortunately, losses experienced in 2020 contributed to industry-wide revenue falling at a CAGR of 1.3% over the past five years, totaling $10.0 billion in 2023 when revenue drops an estimated 0.5%.
