🎙️ The Childcare Director’s Chair Podcast with Erica Saccoccio

As a childcare director, you're constantly pouring into others — but who’s pouring into you? In this empowering episode of The Childcare Director’s Chair Podcast, host Erica Saccoccio dives into the importance of self-care, travel, and time off for early childhood education leaders.

We’re talking about why it’s time to stop feeling guilty and start booking that vacation, how exploring life outside of your center can spark new creativity, and why prioritizing rest is not a luxury — it’s a necessity. 💆‍♀️🌴

Whether you’re dreaming of a weekend getaway or a full-on escape, this episode will remind you that taking care of yourself is the best way to show up for your team, your students, and your mission.
