Early Childhood Coaching Hub
When coaches thrive, quality improves…
Strengthen coaching. Increase teaching quality. Improve retention.
Coaching is a learned skill. Being a great teacher is not enough; nor is the initial training most coaches receive. Coaches deserve continuing professional development on the tools and skills to make them successful.
For many program leaders and administrators, coaching is a black box. They know it’s important, but lack the visibility, metrics, or strategy to effectively manage it. Coaching Hub provides the expertise and systems to enable clarity and success.
How We Help
Devoted exclusively to early childhood coaching, we provide:
Coach Training and Mentoring
Professional development that goes beyond initial certification, to support advanced practice and better results: coaching moves and strategies that support both coaches and teachers.
Analytics
Support for data analysis at the teacher and program level, including coaching goals, cycles, observations, action plans, implementation and impact. This can tie to CLASS and other data sources.
Coaching System Assessment
A coach can only be as effective as the system where they operate. Our assessment examines the program’s coaching strategy, infrastructure, and outcomes, to identify gaps and opportunities for growth.
Communities of Practice
Structured peer learning built around common challenges. Expert facilitation draws out effective strategies for goal development, teacher engagement, resistance, reflective questioning, feedback, data use, coaching intensity, and measuring progress.
Fidelity Reviews
Evidence-based review comparing coaching interactions to indicators of effective coaching practice. Findings can be aggregated to identify common skill gaps and inform future PD, mentoring, and lab training.
