First 8 Memphis is excited to announce that we will be hosting Memphis and Shelby County’s first Early Care and Education Conference during Celebrate Babies Week in October.
We can’t wait to bring our early care and education community together for a two-day celebration and learning opportunity:
Day 1: On Friday, October 24th, we will recognize and celebrate the hard work of our community during a lovely reception.
Day 2: On Saturday, October 25th, we will convene over 200 educators, providers, and professionals at BRIDGES USA for a full-day learning experience. We’re inviting everyone that cares for children under eight years old in Shelby County and Tennessee. Registration and details will be shared soon — we hope to see you there!
