Child Care Emotional Intelligence
Solutions for Classroom Success

Teaching and learning can be a wonderful – and challenging – experience. We provide childcare centers with the resources that fit seamlessly within each day and provide emotional skill-building for positive classroom experiences and academic success.

Solutions Unique to You 

The brain develops fastest during the first few years of life, and early childhood lays the foundation for lifelong success. The first – and most important – skill you can teach is emotional intelligence. When a brain is overwhelmed by big emotions, it cannot learn. By learning to identify, understand and manage emotions, the brain is able to learn and emotional well-being occurs. This is true for both teachers and children.

Every child care center is unique, and we provide the resources that you need to tailor the teaching and learning of emotional intelligence to your center’s needs.
