  2. Early Education and Care System: Background on Numbers • Waitlist numbers are as of August, 2012, and do include numbers for unborn kids, children outside of MA, and all “00000” zip codes. • School age children age 13, age 13+, and unknown have been removed from the total number. • Average daily and yearly cost numbers are for IE only and reflect average costs for FY12 only. • For the purpose of this demonstration, the infant and toddler age groups have been combined as this is what will occur when CCFA is implemented. • The infant and toddler combined rate is the average daily rate for infants: $42.86. • Annual costs presume full service for 261 days.
