What happens when educators have access to high-quality resources that spark curiosity, creativity, and reflection? In this episode, we sit down with an educator to explore her experience visiting THRC's Resource Library and how the materials she discovered have supported children’s learning, strengthened her pedagogical practice, and inspired new ideas in her licensed child care program. Join us as we discuss the value of accessible resources and the impact they can have on educators, children, and families. 🎧 Listen now and discover how a visit to the Resource Library can spark inspiration, reflection, and growth in your practice.
*Re-Release *As we excitedly start off this fall season, the Early Years Sector are also excitedly welcoming new children into the classroom. In the spirit of new beginnings, join us as we center our conversation on our recently published Inspiration Sheet: How to make the Transition from Home to Childcare smooth. Questions we unpack: How do we create space to welcome in new children? How can we give ourselves the permission to slow down and focus on building the children's sense of belonging.
We sit down with the incredible Marcia Nicole (Educational Consultant & Founder, Ispyr to Educate) for a powerful conversation on rediscovering joy, reigniting passion, and creating playful learning environments that truly inspire. If you’re in the early learning field and feeling stretched or disconnected—this episode is your invitation to reconnect with your purpose.
Susie Martin, Director of Training and Development Busy Bees North America, joins us to talk about career growth, lifelong learning, and empowering teams along the way. Perfect inspiration for early learning professionals at the start of their journey—or ready for what’s next. 💡
We’re excited to share a conversation all about bringing meaning, connection, and joy to mealtimes in your early learning environment. 🍽️✨ We sit down with Geethmi and Shannon, who bring warmth, enthusiasm, and rich practical insight into creating mealtime experiences that nurture children’s well‑being, support their growing autonomy, and honour the diverse family cultures within your classroom. Tune in, get inspired, and let’s keep learning together. 💛🎧
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.
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?
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.
