Central VT ECE Networking Event Hailey Paschold April 1, 2026

Connection is essential for early childhood educators. Resilience is not something we build alone, but something that grows through relationships, shared experiences, and the support we offer one another along the way. Even in the midst of a challenging day, joy can be found, in laughter, in small moments of connection, and in the collective energy of people coming together with purpose. Rooted in the Strengthening Families framework, this free professional development gathering offers time to build meaningful social connections and recharge alongside peers.

Join us for an evening of connection and learning with fellow early childhood educators in a supportive and collaborative space. There will be food, a take‑home craft, and other meaningful offerings to support your work and wellbeing. We're thrilled to welcome April Zajko, a nature‑based Early Childhood Educator, who will share thoughtful reflections and inspiration. Participants will leave with practical ways to deepen relationships, access support, and contribute to communities where connection, resilience, and joy are shared and sustained.
