Take a moment for yourself with Nap Time Nirvana.
In February 2026, ELA hosted our 2nd Annual Wellness Retreat for Early Childhood Leaders, generously funded by Early Educator Investment Collaborative (The Collaborative), at the beautiful Civana Resort in Carefree, Arizona.
This meaningful gathering offered leaders dedicated time to rest, reflect, and build authentic connections with other leaders in the field. Participants engaged in both group and individual coaching sessions with Didier Sylvain, along with a variety of restorative and renewal-focused activities designed to support personal and professional well-being.
If you are a leader in early childhood education, we invite you to connect with us to learn more. Our contact information is listed on the bottom of this page.
