Supporting the early childhood educator community
Core Network Nashville is Nashville’s community of connected resources for early childhood educators. We are the place to find educational and operational resources in the area, access coaching and mentorship opportunities, and get connected to the strong community of early childhood educators of all different backgrounds. At Core Network Nashville, we believe that no matter your role in education, you deserve to have the resources and community support you need to thrive in your work.
Core Network Nashville is led by an Advisory Committee, which serves to grow, verify, and maintain the Resource Directory, develop instructional content, build communities of practice, and produce the annual Ignite Conference. Together, we are connecting our resources for educators.
The CORE Network Nashville Webinar Series unites early childhood professionals to align knowledge, skills, and best practices for life-long academic success and well-being for children and families. Click here to explore recent webinars.
The CORE Conversation Podcast COMING SOON
CORE Conversations, is our podcast dedicated to shaping the future of early childhood education. Here, we explore research-based practices, leadership strategies, and real-world stories that empower educators and strengthen communities. Early childhood education is the foundation of thriving families, vibrant neighborhoods, and successful businesses. Together we can ensure every child has the best start. We bring you voices from the classroom, the boardroom, and the community, because every perspective matters when building strong foundations for children. Tune in for insights, strategies, and stories that move our field forward. Together, we are building strong foundations. One conversation at a time.
