Empowering Family Child Care Providers: The Path to Training & Accreditation

In this episode of Childcare Challenges, host Tashieanna O'Connor sits down with Nilda Aponte, a leader in supporting family child care providers, to discuss the critical role of training and accreditation in early childhood education.

Many family caregivers face barriers to accessing professional development—whether due to cost, time, or a lack of awareness about its importance. Nilda sheds light on how All Our Kin helps providers navigate these challenges, offering guidance on finding quality training, the benefits of accreditation, and how further education elevates both caregivers and the children they serve.

They also explore why some in the field may undervalue continued learning—and how shifting that mindset can lead to stronger businesses, better outcomes for working parents, and a brighter future for kids.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation on transforming child care through education, support, and advocacy!
