February 9, 2023Face to Face training: Double-check the LOCATION of the session before registering!
Educators have a lot on their hands right now. You’re responsible for supporting the academic, social, emotional, and mental wellbeing of children through a period of historic uncertainty. It is a busy, chaotic time and it can easily feel like you have no time for yourself. Operating at a high level of unmitigated stress will, over time, lead to burnout. In this session, we discuss why self-care is critical right now and share realistic strategies, tips, and tricks on finding what works for you.
This training is presented through a partnership between SPARK Learning Lab and Lakeshore®. All attendees will receive a materials kit to use with the children in your program!
