The Child Care Directors Chair Podcast
🎙️ The Child Care Director’s Chair – Where Big Dreams and Bigger Leadership Collide!
Ready to level up your child care career? Whether you're a teacher assistant dreaming of that lead teacher badge, a lead ready to snag that director title, or a director with your sights set on owning your own center (or multiple ones 👀)—this is your seat at the table. And spoiler alert: leadership isn’t a title, it’s an action.
Hosted by the one and only Erica Saccoccio—part coach, part cheerleader, and full-time leadership hype man—you’ll get daily doses of real talk, big laughs, and bold leadership truths. We’re talking practical strategies, mindset shifts, and serious elevation vibes... all served with love (and a little sass 😘).
✨ New episodes drop Monday–Friday at 1 AM EST—so you can sip your coffee, set your goals, and strut into your center like the boss you’re becoming.
This show is a great addition to your leadership toolbox or the perfect resource for your team onboarding sessions—because the best programs grow their teams from within. 💪
Pull up your chair, future leader. Let’s do this thing. 💼💥
