socioeconomic status (SES) and a number of children's health and developmental outcomes.9 Longitudinal research suggested structural characteristics such as poverty and demography were mediated through community - level social processes that influenced the functioning of families and children.10, 11 Today, however, there is still limited understanding of the modifiable community - level factors likely to benefit outcomes
for young children despite socioecological frameworks suggesting there are multiple levels of influence (individual, family, community) on early child
development (ECD).12, 13 Investigating these influences is thought best undertaken through a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods that can test these multiple influences on ECD.14, 15
