Questions? We’ve got answers.

Is presenting with Playground a paid opportunity?

Playground Workshops are unpaid speaking opportunities. Our speakers participate to share their expertise and make practical education more accessible to the child care community. In return, Playground promotes your Workshop to our audience of child care owners and directors, handles the event production and promotion, provides assets you can share with your own audience, and sends you the recording of your session to keep and share afterward.
