The Childcare Provider Appreciation Picnic is a community gathering recognizing the educators, caregivers, support staff, and volunteers who help Rochester’s children learn and thrive. Childcare professionals and their families are invited to enjoy an afternoon of food, outdoor activities, and connection.

The picnic will feature lawn games, children’s activities, music, prize draws, and an appreciation ceremony honoring individuals who have made a meaningful contribution to early childhood care. Guests will also have opportunities to meet other childcare professionals, exchange ideas, and build supportive relationships.

This event is designed to celebrate the patience, creativity, and dedication required to provide high-quality childcare. By bringing the early childhood community together, Little Steps Childcare Network hopes to recognize local providers while encouraging collaboration and professional support.
