12 Month Professional Development for Early Childhood Educators
Transform your understanding of child development and build a happier, more engaged team
Here Are the Topics We'll Explore
Twelve sessions designed to give you practical, evidence based strategies you can use immediately. Each topic builds understanding and equips your team with real solutions.
Reflexes and Core Strength
Identify unintegrated reflexes holding children back and integrate simple 5 minute activities into your daily routines. Understand why some children literally cannot sit still and what to do about it.
Vestibular and Proprioception
Discover why today's children crave spinning, crashing and heavy work. Learn strategic sensory input throughout your day and talk confidently with families about screen time.
Play Schemas
Transform destructive play into learning opportunities. Understand the 8 play schemas and create environments that reduce behaviour issues whilst supporting brain development.
The Vagus Nerve
Master co regulation strategies that actually work. Learn why your regulation directly affects children's behaviour and discover vagus nerve activities disguised as play.
Building Play Skills
Guide children from wandering and disengagement to collaborative, imaginative play. Learn when to step in and when to step back and how to build genuine play stamina.
Resilience and Theory of Mind
Develop children's empathy and perspective taking through intentional play. Use growth mindset language that works and help families embrace healthy struggle.
Sensory Processing

Executive Function Skills
Build working memory, flexibility, and self-control through playful practice. Discover games and activities that strengthen executive function in young children.
Emotional Regulation
Go beyond the calm down corner. Understand the neuroscience of big emotions and learn movement-based regulation strategies that support co-regulation.
Neuroplasticity & Growth Mindset
Discover how the brain changes and grows. Learn why effort matters more than talent and the power of "yet" and process-focused praise in early childhood.
