Teacher-First

What can we do today to help early educators feel more confident and be more equipped to address challenges in the classroom? That's the question that guides all that we do at First-Day Learning.

Simple Solutions

Today's educators are stretched to their limits. Our suite of PD makes behavior change simple, easy, and actionable, giving teachers practical solutions to the behavior challenges they face every day.

Insightful Facilitation

To be supportive educators have to feel supported. Our facilitators are former teachers who bring empathy and care into each trainings and give teachers time to prepare and plan for the work ahead.

Grounded Curriculum

Our PD is grounded in the science of behavior change. After spending time with us, participants better understand the interactions in their everyday life and how to address and prevent challenging behavior.

A Holistic Approach

We approach challenging behavior from two directions: proactive methods and reactive solutions. We help early educators and families address challenging behavior proactively, reactively, or both—and empower our participants to apply the strategies that are most appropriate in the moment.
