About this Event
Get Ready — The Child Care & Development Conference is Coming Back!
Mark your calendars (details coming soon!). Our Daily Bread CACFP's Annual Child Care & Development Conference is returning, and we cannot wait to see you there.
Last year's conference brought together childcare professionals from across Tennessee and Kentucky for two unforgettable days of learning, connection, and celebration, and this year we're taking it even further. Once again, we'll be gathering at the stunning Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, a destination that turns a training conference into a genuine getaway.
Picture this: nine acres of lush indoor gardens and cascading waterfalls right under one roof, a full-service spa to unwind after a day of workshops, and SoundWaves, an incredible indoor/outdoor water experience, waiting for you. Wander the resort's charming indoor streetscape, grab dinner at one of several on-site restaurants spanning steak, Italian, Mexican, and Japanese cuisine, and finish the night with dessert at the gelato bar. When the conference wraps for the day, Nashville's Music City magic (the Grand Ole Opry, Ryman Auditorium, and more) is right around the corner.
But beyond the beautiful setting, what made last year's conference truly special was the people. Educators from every corner of Tennessee and Kentucky came together to learn, laugh, swap stories, and recharge, leaving inspired and ready to bring that energy back to the children in their care. This year, we're celebrating our commitment to supporting the educators who do this vital work every day, and we want you to be part of it.
Workshop details, speakers, and registration information are on the way, but go ahead and start dreaming about the waterfalls, the wave pool, and the wonderful company. We'll see you there!
