Dear families,
As a reminder, all Dr. Day Care & Kids Klub locations will be closed on Friday, April 18, 2025 for a full day off-site staff Professional Day. We appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we support our teachers’ growth and learning.
Learning doesn’t stop once you’ve grown up! Everyone can benefit from learning new skills, especially those working with children. At Dr. Day Care and Kids Klub, we value learning and building the skills and knowledge necessary to foster a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. This training day will provide learning experiences and opportunities for our teachers to connect with peers and experts in the field.
Your support allows us to invest in your child’s teachers’ growth – which enhances the care and education provided to your child!
This year, your child’s teachers will be spending this training day learning about topics to engage and connect – our theme for this year’s professional day.
Some of what your child’s teachers will be learning on Friday:
Providing safety and connection while building relationships with autistic students is an essential part of promoting an environment that is responsive to individual learning and regulation needs. Teachers will learn best practices such as Conscious Discipline and Structured Teaching as well as building safety and connection for all learners. We will be learning how to engage with others of different ages and experience levels as well as how to bring out the best in all of us! Jeannine Fitzgerald, from The Fitzgerald Institute, will be our keynote speaker as we “solve our people puzzles” – learning to reduce tension, minimize confrontation and conflict, restore relationships, enhance communication and manage team dynamics.
Thank you for you support as we invest in our teachers’ growth and learning!
