Professional Development & Training for Child Care Providers

The contract calls for the delivery of targeted training workshops and professional development programs specifically designed for family child care providers, focusing on three core areas: behavioral management, trauma-informed care, and the early identification of developmental delays. These sessions are intended to enhance the skills and knowledge of providers in supporting the social, emotional, and cognitive development of young children in home-based care settings. The training must be culturally responsive, practical, and aligned with current best practices in early childhood education and mental health. The work is under a subcontract agreement through Boston Public Schools, with performance based in Roxbury at Washington Street, zip code 02119. Bidders must respond by June 1, 2026, and the North American Industry Classification System code 611430 applies, which covers other schools and instruction. The opportunity is open to entities capable of delivering high-quality, accessible, and impactful professional learning experiences to a diverse population of home-based providers across the designated area. There is no set-aside designation specified, and all interested parties must meet the operational and pedagogical requirements to effectively meet the needs of the child care community in Boston.
