Summer is in Full Swing...
And I want to hear from you!
Hello there, and happy summer!
If you’re new here, I’m Amanda. I started this little corner of the internet on scraps of paper back when I was leading a childcare center, dreaming of a space just for directors—where we could share things that actually made our jobs easier and feel a little less alone in this wild world of early childhood leadership.
Now I still have a full time gig leading ECE teachers and I work on the Collective during that magical window between bedtime stories and passing out with my laptop on my chest. This summer, as my school’s newish summer program kicked off, I had to shift gears for a few weeks. But now that the dust has (mostly) settled, I’m excited to reconnect and continue developing the resources and support to make your jobs easier.
That said, I know the summer can also be a time when things slow down just enough for you to breathe, reorganize, or finally clear that desktop folder labeled “Important” from February. I’ve been thinking a lot about how this space can show up for you during that window—and I’d love your help shaping it.
👇 So tell me:
Last, is there something you wish existed that I haven’t created yet? Or something else that would be helpful to focus on during the summer months?
If so, please drop your ideas and thoughts in the comments below!
Your feedback inspires everything I create here. Huge thanks to those who’ve reached out, shared my work, or taken a moment to tell me what’s been most helpful. I appreciate it more than you know!
