B (95% CI): unstandardized beta coefficients (95% confidence intervals)
BMI z-scores were calculated according to the World Health Organization (WHO) growth standards
Adjusted analyses included toddlers’ age, sex, race/ethnicity, household income and main type of child care as covariates
Meeting the recommendations is defined as ≥180 min of physical activity at varying intensities; no screen time for <2-year-olds or ≤1 h for ≥2-year-olds; and 11–14 h of sleep/day including nap during daytime
