When coaches thrive, quality improves…



Looking to strengthen coaching for early childhood teachers and caregivers? Improve CLASS scores? Build a better workforce pipeline? Measure coaching effectiveness and impact? 

Coaching Hub supports coaches in their professional development and program leaders to manage effective coaching programs.

Coaching is a learned skill. Being a great teacher is not enough, nor is the initial training most coaches receive. Coaches deserve continuing professional development focusing specifically on the skills for practice-based coaching.

For many program leaders and administrators, coaching is a black box. They know it's important, but lack the visibility or strategy to effectively manage it. We provide the expertise and systems to enable coaching clarity and success. 


HOW WE HELP

Coach Training and Mentoring


Professional development that goes beyond initial certification to support advanced practice and better results: Coaching moves and strategies that support both coaches and teachers.

Communities of Practice

 Structured peer learning built around common challenges. Expert facilitation draws out effective strategies for goal development, teacher engagement, resistance, reflective questioning, feedback, data use, coaching intensity, and measuring progress.

Analytics

Support for data analysis at the teacher and program levels, including coaching goals, cycles, observations, action plans, implementation, and impact. This can tie to CLASS and other data sources.

Fidelity Reviews

Evidence-based review comparing coaching interactions to indicators of effective coaching practice. Findings can be aggregated to identify common skill gaps and inform future PD, mentoring, and lab training.

Coaching System Assessment

A coach can only be as effective as the system where they operate.  Our assessment examines the program’s coaching strategy, infrastructure, and outcomes to identify gaps and opportunities for growth.

Keynote Presentations

 Coach content is often missing from early childhood conferences and pre-service training. Our expert team can help raise visibility and awareness of coaching issues that are critical to improving program outcomes.

The Early Childhood Coaching Hub delivers across several content areas

CLASS Score Improvement

Pyramid Model - Child Behavior 

Embedded Instruction

Dual Language Learning

We provide a professional home for early childhood coaches and quality leaders. For states, we're supporting the move from standards-based QRIS to outcome-oriented quality systems.


THE RESULT

You'll stop guessing. Coaches will advance their practice, as will teachers. You'll gain visibility on the metrics that matter. Our clients strengthen their workforce pipeline and reduce early career burnout. And beyond coach and teacher confidence and well-being, they achieve better child outcomes.
