About Grounded & Growing retreats

Each Grounded & Growing Online retreat invites nature-based early childhood administrators into a deeper exploration of Inside, Outside, and Beyond as layers of connection: to ourselves, to our colleagues, to the children and their families, and to the natural world. There is a different focus for each retreat.

The retreats provide space to reflect on how your own presence—your emotions, mindset, and roles—profoundly influence your program and ultimately shape children’s learning experiences. 

These retreats are for you if you’re ready to pause, reflect, and reimagine your role—not just as an administrator of a nature-based program, but as a co-learner, teammate, and leader in a nature-based learning community.

Join us as we do the “deep work” of showing up with intention, authenticity, and care to foster stronger nature-based programs.

Can’t attend live? No problem! We’ll send you the recording. You’ll also receive a 2-hour certificate of completion for this retreat.
