QUALITY SUPPORT AND TRAINING.

Quality Counts.

Community Resources for Children is partnering with First 5 Napa County in Quality Counts, the QIRS (Quality Improvement and Rating System) program in Napa County.  Quality Counts provides information, resources, and support at no cost to early care and education programs, including family child care homes serving children ages 0-5. The program goal is to enhance the quality of learning programs and to acknowledge the effort of early childhood professionals to provide optimum learning environments and experiences for the children in our county.

There are currently over 30 family child care providers and centers participating in Quality Counts. Over the past year, participants of Quality Counts have received onsite coaching, incentive materials to support quality learning environments and access to free training/workshops for providers. If you are interested in participating in Quality Counts or finding out more information, contact Judy Nielsen.
