The 19th Annual Early Learning Conference!

Registration Is Now Open!

ELCPH is proud to announce our 19th Annual in-person Early Learning Conference! We encourage providers to share this opportunity with their directors and educators to engage in a day of professional learning and collaboration.

Participants will “Make, Take, and Celebrate” as they create hands-on resources to bring back to their classrooms, exchange ideas with fellow early learning professionals, discover new strategies, and build connections that support quality early childhood education.

Keynote Presenter:
Amy Nelson, LCSW, LSCSW, RPT-S

Meet “Quirky Kid” Amy Nelson — founder of Emotional Milestones, award-winning children’s book author, Play Therapist, and passionate advocate for neurodiversity and inclusion!
Amy is the creative mind behind Every Bunny Can Learn: A Tail of Inclusion, which recently took 1st Place in Disability Awareness at the Royal Dragonfly Book Awards!
As an autistic professional with extensive experience supporting young children, Amy brings a powerful blend of personal insight, professional expertise, and engaging storytelling. Her message inspires early childhood educators to LEAN IN, celebrate differences, and create inclusive classrooms where EVERY child can learn, grow, and thrive!
