Family Child Care Network (FCCN)
The Family Child Care Network (FCCN) connects families with safe, high-quality family child care providers throughout Northern Nevada while also helping family child care businesses thrive. FCCN is dedicated to enhancing the quality, accessibility, and sustainability of family child care through provider support, professional development, and community partnerships.
For families, FCCN offers connections to trusted, vetted child care providers who deliver nurturing, home-like learning environments with smaller group sizes, individualized attention, and flexible scheduling options, including full-time, part-time, and non-traditional hours. FCCN providers create developmentally appropriate learning experiences that support children's cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth while building strong relationships with families.
For child care providers, FCCN offers ongoing support to strengthen program quality and business sustainability. Services include assistance with child care licensing, quality improvement planning, curriculum implementation, professional development opportunities, training, coaching, and access to resources that support best practices in early childhood education. FCCN also operates a Toy Truck Lending Library, providing providers with access to a wide variety of educational toys, learning materials, and equipment that can be checked out to enhance children's learning experiences without the expense of purchasing new materials.
By supporting both families and providers, the Family Child Care Network helps ensure that every child has access to high-quality, equitable early care and education in a family-centered setting while strengthening the child care workforce across Northern Nevada.
