Head to Toe: The Midwest Interactive Infant-Toddler ConferenceHead to Toe Conference

Head to Toe was developed in 2006 to provide those who care for our youngest children with the tools and research-based information they need for best practice.

This conference brings together early childhood
professionals for a day of targeted training on relevant
topics in infant-toddler care. The Professional Academy of Early Childhood Practice at Head to Toe focuses on one  area of concentration all day long—offering an integrated model of theory, research and practice in an intimate and interactive environment.
