“…NCAL strategy-level evaluation results included in other papers in this issue showed mixed findings for corner store strategies 26 and more positive results in early childhood settings. 25 Modest positive results were found for population changes from the youth and adult surveys across the entire initiative (data not shown). Of the 92 pre and post comparisons (Note: one community in SCAL did not do the school surveys, so there were 44 comparisons in SCAL, not 48), just over one fifth (n¼20, 22%) were positive-either statistically significant (po0.05, n¼11) or trending (po0.10, n¼9)-and 7 (8%) were negative and significant.…”

“…Differences were found between FDC service providers trained or not trained in Munch & Move regarding professional development and nutrition, physical activity and screen time policies but not in the resources provided. Other studies have generally found that professional development has improved both policies and resources [11][12][13] , however a recent US study, which focused on educator professional development, found no difference in nutrition, physical activity or screen time policies between intervention and control. 14…”

We developed a policy review tool to assess the extent to which family day care service providers' policies adhere to national standards and relevant guidelines • Service provider policies and practices were more likely to promote healthy eating compared with infant feeding, physical activity and screen time • Service providers trained in the Munch & Move program were more likely to offer healthy eating and physical activity professional development to educators and have more comprehensive nutrition policies

“…Although studies may have examined interventions to improve family day care environments, not having a parallel control group resulted in their exclusion. Online Appendix B provides an overview of such types of previous interventions undertaken in this setting (29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36) .…”

Objective:To (i) identify and synthesise findings from interventions to improve the dietary intake, physical activity and weight status of children aged 0–6 years attending family day care services; and (ii) assess the impact of interventions on family day care environments, intervention cost and adverse outcomes.Design:Medline in Process, PsycINFO, ERIC, Embase, CINAHL, CENTRAL and Scopus databases were searched in March 2019. Studies were included if they (i) evaluated an intervention to improve the diet, physical activity and/or weight of children aged 0–6 years; (ii) were delivered in family day care services; (iii) targeted child diet, physical activity and/or weight; and (iv) used a parallel control group design. Screening was undertaken by two reviewers with disagreements resolved by a third reviewer.Setting:Family day care services, also known as family childcare homes.Participants:Children aged 0–6 years attending family day care services.Results:In total, 8977 titles were retrieved, and 199 full-texts reviewed. No studies met the inclusion criteria for the primary outcome; however, two studies reporting on the secondary outcome of family day care environments were included. The 4-year community-wide obesity prevention programme and the 12-month train-the-trainer programme both reported statistically significant improvements in the healthy eating and physical activity environments of family day care, compared to cross-sectional state-average control groups.Conclusions:Findings highlight few existing interventions in family day care services and a need for high-quality controlled trials to identify effective interventions to improve children’s diet, activity and weight in this setting.
