This Community of Practice offers early care and education professionals a supportive space to reflect, connect, and build strategies that promote personal wellness and reduce stress. Participants will explore how stress can impact well-being, job satisfaction, and relationships with children, families, and colleagues. Through guided discussion and shared experiences, participants will increase awareness of common stressors in early childhood settings and learn to recognize personal signs of stress. The session will introduce practical, mindful approaches to stress reduction that can be used both in and outside the classroom. Participants will also begin developing a personalized stress management plan to support resilience, improve overall well-being, and sustain their important work with young children and families.
