Hey teachers! 😊 Real talk for a second. The first six weeks of school are the hardest weeks of the whole year. Routines that fall apart, big feelings at drop-off, a schedule that exists only in your head. Every year we say we'll get ahead of it, and every year August eats us alive. So tell me: what's the ONE thing about the beginning of the year that stresses you out most? Drop it in the comments. Your answers are shaping what I build next. 👇🏽 And here's what's happening one level up, because I'd feel bad if you found out later. Inside the Pre-K Prep Club for Teachers ($7 a month), members get: 🎉 300+ done-for-you resources, ready to print and use + monthly drops 🎉 The Jumpstart Challenge for play-based learning 🎉 The Jumpstart Challenge for The Creative Curriculum 🎉 With done-for-you resources and video guides for both challenges 🎉 This August: a LIVE workshop, Your First Six Weeks Playbook, so you walk into the new year with a plan instead of a panic. This workshop is for you no matter what curriculum you use. You'll walk away knowing what developmentally appropriate practice looks like in those first weeks, so you can bring it into YOUR room no matter what your program hands you. We'll use the 2026 Creative Curriculum preschool guide as our example because it's one of the most well-rounded versions out there. Club members are voting on the workshop date right now. Join this month and you get a say in when it happens, a live seat with Q&A, and the replay forever. The resources will always be there. Being in the room while this gets built happens once. 🙌🏽 If August-you deserves a calmer start, come join us here. Already a Club member on our other platform? You're covered. Stay tuned for your invite, appreciate your patience! And even if the Club isn't for you right now, tell me your biggest beginning-of-year struggle below. This community is exactly where those conversations belong. 🤗 Thanks for being a part of it.

Hey teacher friends! 👋 Whether you found me through an ad this week or you've walked alongside me for years, I am so glad you're here. A little about what I do, in case we're just meeting. For a little over two years now, I've had the honor of supporting more than 2,000 teachers inside the Pre-K Prep Club. It started small and it has never stopped growing, because I build it around one thing: your feedback. Every resource and every update comes from listening to the educators actually living this work, the real days with real children. That is who I create for, and it's why the Club keeps evolving. Now, if you're new here and thinking "she says over 2,000 teachers, but I only see a handful," let me explain, because I never want anything about this to feel unclear. Our established community has lived on a different platform for the last couple of years, and that's where those teachers have been growing right alongside me. Recently, so many of my members have told me how much they love the Skool experience in this free community, so I'm building the Club's new home here on Skool. My founding members are coming over first to help me shape the space, which means you're catching us at the very beginning. 🌱 If you're one of those founding members, I just sent everyone a special invitation to join 🔑 Everything happening this month is already yours when you accept the invitation. Don't see it? Please message me! And if you're new? This is the moment to jump in! Right now, everyone inside the Pre-K Prep Club for Teachers gets both of our July challenges completely free, a $100 value, built to support you as you set up your classrooms for the year ahead: 🌱 Jumpstart for Play-Based Learning 📚 Jumpstart for The Creative Curriculum Pick the path that fits your classroom and follow along with real support in the Pre-K Prep Club community. And it's so much more than the challenges. Your membership also opens up a library of done-for-you resources, because that prep work is exactly what pulls our time and energy away from the parts of this calling we love most. I want to hand that time back to you.
