I help educators ditch the burnout, own their brilliance, and espresso themselves with confidence; because this isn’t “babysitting.” It’s one of the most important professions in the world.

Hey, I'm Carla

Educator, speaker, podcaster, and unapologetic coffee enthusiast.

(Despite doing one of the most important jobs in the world.)

 That’s why I started this business: to change the narrative around early childhood education and give you the tools, confidence, and recognition you deserve.

After nearly two decades in classrooms and leadership roles, I saw what too many educators were feeling:

Overwhelmed, under-supported, and undervalued

Because here’s the truth:

You don’t need another checklist or ineffective PD. You need someone who gets it and can help you strategize, own your brilliance, and get back to the version of you that actually enjoys this work.

That’s where I come in.

Working with me isn’t fluffy. It’s focused, practical, and powered by purpose (and caffeine, of course).

Through workshops, the ECE Latte Lounge, and ECE Podcast Academy, I help educators like you:

Build community so you never feel alone in this work

Learn actionable strategies you can use tomorrow

Share your voice and expertise with confidence

Because when educators thrive, children thrive.
