✨ Childhood Collective invites you to our new and exclusive series! Join this 9 part series to receive support, connection, and compensation! ✨

Support Circle is a monthly, counselor facilitated group of Childcare Administrators and Managers that aims to offer a safe and supportive space to connect around issues commonly experienced in this field of work.
The emphasis is on mutual support, storytelling, and collective problem-solving. The Circle is less about “training” (though educational content may be introduced and resources shared) and more about holding space for community, resilience, and healing in the midst of professional challenges.

Participants will be compensated for their attendance. Meetings will take place in person at our office, 3200 Hospital Drive, and online as applicable.
Sessions will take place on the Third Tuesday of the Month, beginning October 21 with closing reflection and celebration June 16, 5:30 - 7:30 pm. Monthly Attendance is strongly encouraged.

🌟Participation is LIMITED! 🌟
For additional information and to RSVP, please contact our Circle Coordinator, Joanna Forst, via email, [email protected].

Hello Folks!
I’m sad to say due to various other projects, I am unable to make the Annual JCC Winter Market.
It is always so much fun for me to create these Enriching Sensory Kits and to meet and chat with you all about engaging children where they’re at in their play based learning.
I am still operating Yes! LLC in other capacities and deciding the future for “Playful Learning.” I will hope to see you all in the future bringing the best effort and experiences to Early Childhood Development!
🤍🍋
