What We Offer
Consulting
We are committed to ensuring your success in Early Care and Education. All care providers want to best meet the needs of the children and families served. At Innovations in Education, LLC, we recognize that each care provider has a unique philosophy and values, all grounded in wanting to do what is best for children and families. With this in mind, it is our mission to help you meet your goals and create an environment that promotes developmentally appropriate practices.
We believe in tailoring our services to each client. It is our goal to assist you in creating and implementing policies and practices that reflect your program’s philosophy, or your family’s values. We strive to provide program administrators and teachers with individualized guidance and mentoring about best practices in early childhood education. We help families weed through the noise of parenting advice to find the strategies and resources that help create a loving, nurturing home environment. We work together with program administrators, teachers, and families to problem solve the best ways to achieve your goals.

Training & Professional Development
is our goal to provide relevant and current workshops with the most up to date research. Our training philosophy is that all workshops should be easily accessible and understandable while providing participants with information that can be directly applied to their work with young children, whether that’s at home or in the classroom.
We also believe that professional development is the cornerstone to providing the highest quality of care for children. We provide a range of professional development and training.
Choose from on-site workshops that can be customized, or choose a topic from our workshop catalog. Or, let us design training just for your program or organization. We offer day and evening workshops, which can be in-person or virtual.
Looking for coaching or more targeted support? We provide one-on-one or small group teacher and parent mentoring. We are also available for on-going professional development and conference sessions.

Family and Parent Support
Parenting is hard work! Babies don’t come with an instruction manual, and it seems like everyone is a parenting expert. There is so much noise out there, how do you identify what is good parenting advice and what isnt? And, if you have more than one child, you know how different each child can be, with different temperaments, interests, and needs.
We’re here to help you weed through the noise and find the resources and strategies that align with your family values and meet the developmental needs of your child.
