Throughout the pandemic, child care providers have put their lives on the line to serve California’s children and young families. Now, all Californians age 16 and older are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine, including essential workers like child care providers and teachers. Although all available vaccines are safe and effective against serious illness, many Americans remain hesitant.

We hope you will use these resources, which feature testimonials from child care providers who have been or plan to be vaccinated, to reach providers in your community. These resources can help inform providers about these vaccines and provide encouragement from peers.
