SSMC aims to take the stigma out of home-based childcare providers. Last year, Campbell accompanied a group of dedicated home based providers to the National Association for Family Child Care (NAFCC) National Conference in St. Louis. This opportunity for five CEOs gave them the opportunity to professionally develop their craft and network and strategize ways to grow their business.
"Connecting with [Nicole] and Smart Start of Mecklenburg County has allowed us to grow as childcare providers and have access to very valuable resources. We have gained a lot of knowledge and education in a small time frame. I know that continuing to have Smart Start in my corner will make a powerful impact on helping young children reach their highest potential," said Marshall.
