Family Child Care Leadership Conference
FIRST 5 Santa Clara County, together with a design team of Family Child Care Home providers, launched an annual Family Child Care Leadership Conference in 2023.

Conferences
Each year, our design team comes together to develop an incredible and engaging conference that strengthens our family childcare community. The conference offers an inspirational keynote speaker, workshops on a range of topics from childcare licensing to self-care strategies, and, most importantly, the opportunity to connect with other childcare providers across the county.
Registration information will be posted here as it becomes available. Please check back in August.
