The Home Childcare Network meets monthly (Sept to June) to give home child care providers the opportunity to meet and learn new skills related to providing quality child care.

Care providers meet at the Ontario Early Years Centre - Haldimand and Norfolk at the Simcoe site on the first Tuesday of the month. 

Are you interested in starting a home child care business?  Do you want to formalize the business you have now - complete with contracts, curriculum ideas?  Learn the basics of starting and running a home child care business from your home.  Proper set up, safety standards, marketing, partnerships with families and networking opportunities are all highlighted in this Home Child Care Network.

The network meetings are open to anyone who wants information on home childcare. The meetings are fun, informative, and interactive.  
 

Come learn about new trends in childcare, and what the latest research is telling us about early child development.  You will come away from the network meetings with new ideas of fun things to do with the children you care for. 

Registration  for the meeting must be made at least one week in advance. For dates please check the Professional Development Calendar
