The research on childcare started almost a century, in the 1930s. Based on the Scopus database, none of the scholarly attention has been paid to laying out a broad overview of this field of study, especially bibliometric analysis. This study addresses the limitations by analyzing the study’s current trend in a childcare research study by extracting the data from the Scopus database and has been analyzed by using bibliometric analysis (Microsoft Excel, Harzing’s Publish and Perish software, and VOSviewer software). The article title search has extracted 3023 documents. The highest productivity was in 2021 (161 documents). There were 12 main clusters of childcare research areas that have been visualized in VOSviewer software. The United States was ranked first as the most active country and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (95 total publications, 6678 total citations, and 42 h-index) was the most active university published in childcare studies. The findings demonstrate that many studies on multi-author collaboration have been undertaken in this research area and the findings add to the significant body of knowledge on childcare research worldwide. © (2024), (Elite Scientific Publications).
