Happy classrooms start with happy teachers
Challenging classroom behavior is the single biggest issue for early childhood teachers today. FirstDay Learning is on a mission to create happy, confident teachers who cultivate happy, inclusive learning environments where all children thrive.

Who We Serve
From the company's origins, to our mission, to the way we do business, FirstDay Learning is all about people. They're why we love what we do and why our clients love working with us.
Why Now
Decades in the field, countless focus groups, and thousands of classroom observations have shown us that teachers are desperate for speedy solutions to their biggest cause of stress: challenging behaviors in the classrooms.

Teachers are hurting. Stress, burnout, and frustration are leading to higher staff turnover than ever before.

Behavior problems are teachers' top concern. Teachers report that managing classroom behavior is their biggest daily challenge.

Inclusion is a critical challenge. Inclusion benefits everyone, but teachers feel unprepared to support exceptional learners.

Everyone is overwhelmed. From paras to directors, everyone is operating at maximum capacity, and then some.
Why FirstDay Learning
FirstDay Learning's science-based programs help everyone impacted by problematic behaviors build more responsive classrooms from day one.

GROUNDED IN BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE
Designed by experts in the field of human psychology, our solutions combine trauma-informed practices, self-care strategies, and applied behavior analysis.

SIMPLE AND STRAIGHTFORWARD
We're focused on making behavior change simple, actionable, and achievable.

INTEGRATIVE, NOT ADDITIVE
Our solutions are meant to complement—not replace—any existing strategies or solutions your teachers are using.

TEACHER-CENTRIC
Facilitated by former educators who get it, our trainings are fun and engaging with built-in time for teachers to plan.
What Participants Say
Whether we're working with teachers, coaches, administrators, or families, our participants love their experience with FirstDay Learning. Maybe that's because we make people our number #1 priority.

"I loved that I was reminded of a lot of things that were way in the back of my mind. The information was very relevant- All the ideas we talked about are real life things that we need to be better at as educators."
Shauntrelle, Teacher
"The way the facilitators were so engaged with what we had to say made me feel very comfortable. It was as if you were in our classroom!"
