The childcare (CC) environment can influence young children\u2019s physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB), and adiposity. The aim of the study was to identify a broad range of CC correlates of PA, SB, and adiposity in a large sample of preschoolers. <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>. 476 preschool children (mean age 3.9\u2009yrs; 47% girls) participated in the Swiss Preschoolers\u2019 Health Study (SPLASHY). PA and SB were measured by accelerometry. Outcome measures included total PA (TPA), moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA), SB, body mass index (BMI), and skinfold thickness (SF). PA measures consisted of both daily PA during CC attendance days and overall daily PA (CC and non-CC days). <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. We identified the following CC correlates for higher TPA and\/or higher MVPA or lower SB during CC attendance days: older age, sex (boys), more frequent child-initiated interactions during CC, mixing different ages within a group, and the presence of a written PA policy in the CC (all <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M1\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>p<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>\u2264<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.02<\/mml:mn><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math>). The CC correlates for overall TPA and\/or MVPA or lower overall SB including both CC and non-CC days were the following: older age, sex (boys), more frequent child-initiated interactions during CC, mixing different ages within a group, less parental PA involvement in the CC, and having a larger surface area in CC (all <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M2\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>p<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>\u2264<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.046<\/mml:mn><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math>). Correlates for lower SF were sex (boys) and parental PA involvement in the CC (all <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M3\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>p<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>\u2264<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.02<\/mml:mn><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math>), and, for lower BMI, only increased age (<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" id=\"M4\"><mml:mrow><mml:mi>p<\/mml:mi><mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>0.001<\/mml:mn><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math>) was a correlate. <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>. More frequent child-initiated interactions and mixing different ages in CC, the presence of a written PA policy, and a larger CC surface are correlates of PA and SB during CC attendance days and\/or of overall PA. Parental involvement in CC PA projects was a correlate for reduced body fat. These novel factors are mostly modifiable and can be tackled\/addressed in future
