Kirkland Child Care

Happy Providers Day...

What an incredible experience at the National CACFP Association Conference in Las Vegas! As a family Child Care provider, Certified Nutritionist, and early learning professional, attending this conference was truly a highlight of year 2026.

The sessions were outstanding, the networking opened doors I did not even know to look for, and the collective passion in that room for supporting young children through quality nutrition and care was nothing short of inspiring. I walked away with new knowledge, meaningful connections, and a deeper commitment to the work we do every single day at Kirkland Child Care.

Early childhood nutrition is not just about what is on the plate. It is about building curiosity, honoring culture, creating joyful experiences around food, and laying the foundation for lifelong healthy habits. That mission drives everything we do here.

Grateful to be part of such a dedicated and knowledgeable community of sponsors, educators, and nutrition professionals who are raising the bar for young children and families across the country.

Already putting the learning to work. More exciting things ahead for Kirkland Child Care and Thrive Early Learning Consulting.

As we close out the year, we want to thank our Kirkland Child Care families for trust and continued partnership. It has been a joy supporting your children’s growth and learning throughout the year.

In 2025, we were proud to strengthen our commitment to quality early learning through the completion of the Leadership Cohort, earning the CCNP Certificate with NCA, and continued advocacy for early learning and child care.

We are grateful for our community and look forward to another year of learning, growth, and shared success. Wishing everyone happy holidays filled with joy, peace, and love.....
