Infant and Child Development Day
Infant and Child Development Day is celebrated every year on June 18 to recognize the vital role of Infant and Child Development (ICD) professionals in supporting families with young children who experience developmental challenges. These dedicated professionals provide early intervention, guidance, and connection, helping children reach their potential and supporting families every step of the way. This day is an opportunity to acknowledge their compassion, expertise, and commitment to fostering growth, belonging, and a strong foundation for every child.
