Financial Friday: All the details for the 25th Annual INA Conference!

INA Conference Details

I am very excited that all the planning has come together and the details are out on the 25th annual INA Conference.  There is so much packed into this conference!  I hope you have been saving with Smartypig, ING or some other way for the conference. 

I am cashing in my SmartyPig savings goal today for the Conference registration so I can get my gift card of $300.

If you are a first time conference attendee you can take off 10% your early bird registration fee (valid till April 1).
Haven't attended a conference in more than 5 years take 10% off your early bird registration fee (valid till April 1)
If you are traveling with 2 or more friends you can take off 10% of your registration fee (valid till April 1).

This makes the registration fee for either option for a nanny who has an INA membership $265.50 from the orginal $325.  That is a great deal!

Looking for some more ways to save money so that you can attend the conference?
Check out the Plan Ahead Details page

• airfare discounts
• car rental discounts (remember you do have to pay for parking)
• share a room to get a lower hotel cost (up to 4 per room)
• shuttle discounts from the airports of San Francisco and Oakland

 Looking for some extra workshops along with the conference? On Thursday May 20 you can attend one of these

(please note these have an additional charge)

• American Red Cross Water Safety Certification
• INA Nanny Credential Exam Review and Exam 
• Newborn Care Specialist 201: A Day in the Life of a NCS  
• Ready, Set, Go! A Workshop for New Agencies

Don't forget that on Friday night May 21 there are two evening activity plans:

• Alcatraz Island: An Inescapable Experience (cost is $33)
• Cable Car Tour of San Francisco (free available to 30 people only)

You are ready to book your flight now aren't you?  If you are interested in coming, don't hestiate asking your employeers to contribute to you attending the conference. They might have hotel points, airline miles or pay for your registration fee.  You don't know till you ask.

On Sunday  before you head back out of town or on your way to sight see why not drop into the INA Board Meeting to see how things work. All members are welcomed to sit in quietly to the board meetings. You may just find yourself running for the INA Board in 2011.

Grab a nanny friend and plan on coming to the 25th Annual Nanny Conference. I want to meet you as well as the rest of the Regarding Nannies Development Team-Glenda and Kellie!

Special Spoiler:  

Come back to Regarding Nannies on Monday March 8, 2010 to see how you can possibly get an early bird registration fee for FREE!
