    Being an Educator: Everyday Magic in our Work

    In the busy rhythm of an educator’s day, it’s easy to overlook the quiet magic happening in the margins — the soft moments of connection, the tiny breakthroughs, the gentle wins that rarely make it into documentation but shape the heart of our work.   In this episode, we slow down and notice the subtle victories that often go unseen: a child’s newfound confidence, a shared smile across the room, a moment of calm that arrives exactly when we need it.   Join us as we explore how paying attention to these small, quiet moments not only supports the children and families we serve but also nourishes us as educators. This is an invitation to pause, breathe, and celebrate the everyday magic woven into our role — one soft, meaningful moment at a time.

    Care in Practice: Becoming Conscious of Our Hands

    You’re invited to pause and notice your hands in the work you do each day.   In this episode, I share a simple practice inspired by Carol Garboden Murray's book Illuminating Care: The Pedagogy and Practice of Care in Early Childhood Communities — of tying a ribbon around my wrist as a gentle reminder to bring awareness to my hands during moments of care. Together, let's explore how noticing our hands in care can make care more visible, deepen relationships, and reconnect us to the values that guide our practice.   🎧 Listen in — and consider: What do your hands communicate in moments of care?

    Table Talk Tidbit: What Does Laughter Have to Do with Belonging, Connection and Retention?

    In this episode we explore laughter as a pedagogy — not as something extra, but as something essential.   Laughter builds connection. Laughter regulates nervous systems. Laughter creates belonging.   Inspired by Deb Curtis’ Really Seeing Children and Nina Spencer’s Getting Passion Out of Your Profession, this episode invites us to notice laughter as a glimmer — a moment of joy, safety, and shared humanity in our early learning spaces.   What do children find funny? What happens when we pause to really see those moments? And how might protecting our sense of humour help us stay passionate, connected, and well in this profession?   Because being a committed educator doesn’t mean being serious all the time. It means being present. Playful. And willing to laugh alongside children.   🎧 Listen now and join us in looking for the glimmers.
