Extension Educator Jaci Foged delivered or co-delivered 86 professional development trainings to 3,303 childcare providers, generating 5,388 in-service hours approved by the Nebraska Department of Health & Human Services. Due to the ongoing pandemic, 76 of these trainings were held virtually, and 10 were delivered in person. Feedback indicates the trainings made a positive impact, such as, “CHIME has helped me identify my stressors and manage my feelings when I’m stressed,” and “I have more compassion in my interactions with the children.”
