Licensed Family Child Care providers are located in the Bedford, Belmont, Billerica, Burlington, Chelmsford, Dracut, Lowell, Maynard, Woburn, Tewksbury, Tyngsboro, Westford, Wilmington, and surrounding areas in Massachusetts. You must be licensed by EEC to attend our workshops. Non members may attend a workshop and pay the fee and will receive a certificate for the workshop. Non members who are licensed by EEC wishing to attend a workshop to see what the FCCA is about, may do so free but will NOT receive a certificate for the workshop. Support functions are for paid FCCA members only.
How did the FCCA begin? Two Licensed Family Child Care Providers founded the FCCA in 1979. The purpose was to unite people having similar interests in childcare, and provide them with the opportunity to meet and share ideas. The objectives of the Association are to assist in maintaining the highest quality of care that promotes the physical, intellectual, emotional, social development of children.
