Celebrations

Celebrations in early childhood programs are a hot topic. Let's discuss options and whether "to celebrate or not to celebrate".

Mistaken Goals of Behaviour

Why do children misbehave? Rudolph Dreikur's work examines the four reasons to help us understand children’s behaviour.

Philosophies

Refresh your memory on the philosophies that guide and direct our local childcare settings. What are the benefits and how can you implement them?

About

 

My name is Sarah McCarthy and I created ECE Connect in 2015 with the idea of connecting Early Childhood educators.

​

There are many educators that feel lost and are searching for knowledge. Together, through kindness and empathy, we can connect, share, and help each other to become better teachers.

​

Through workshops and on-site consulting, I hope ECE Connect can provide a platform to improve the quality of education for our children.

​

This journey is a collaboration between everyone in the early childhood field and I hope you can join along!
