What it Means to be an IdahoSTARS Trainer

Trainers are an essential part of the IdahoSTARS mission to improve the quality of child care in Idaho. Training helps child care providers keep up to date and ready to tackle any problems that may arise in their work. Child care providers learn important information from training that they can apply to their work with children, and the children and their families are the ultimate beneficiaries. Thanks, trainers, for all you do!
