Abstract (Translated): 
This paper analyzes the association between quality of parenting programs and child development outcomes . It focuses on parenting programs delivered through home visits (i.e., home visiting programs) in which a par aprofessional works with the caregiver to improve parental practices, skills and knowledge of child develop ment , wi th an application to the Peruvian national program Programa Nacional Cuna Má s. Home visiting quality is measured through the Home Visit Rating Scale, version A+2 (HOVRS - A+2), and child development outcomes through the Ages and Stages Questionnaires (ASQ - 3) and the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (Bayley - III). The empirical analysis used is descriptive in nature. Results show that home visiting quality scores are significantly associated with our measures of child development, but thi s association is not consistent across all measures
