Info on the childcare provider resource network CCPRN

[Samantha33]

I am looking to find out where my nearest CCPRN office is. I'm thinking of joining something like this. It sounds great from what I've heard. I've tried to find out on their website but not having any luck. I'm in Cornwall.

The CCPRN in Ottawa is the only one. It was started many years ago as a support group for childcare providers and has gradually morphed into what it is now. If you are interested in starting a support group in your area I'm sure they would be glad to give you some pointers. I know when they started the group in London that they got support through them. Your Early Years Centre would also be a source of support for starting caregiver get togethers. If you do join the Ottawa group you will receive the newsletter 6 times a year which gives you some ideas to use, a section of French resources and updates on current important issues. You would of course be welcome to come to Ottawa for any of the activities that you wanted to.
