Transformational Coaching for Early Childhood Educators

“Constant presents a coaching model that allows for flexibility, offers self-reflection opportunities and tools, and empowers coaches to collaborate with others in a gentle, meaningful partnership. This work will undoubtedly have a long-lasting, positive impact on all that make the time to share and receive this powerful framework.” —Nefertiti B. Poyner, EdD, early childhood specialist, and provider of professional learning for the Devereux Center for Resilient Children

“If you only get one professional development opportunity on how-to-coach, this should be it! Written in a bite-sized, easily digestible format that caters to adult learners Constant Hine has written a motivational tool that can truly raise your skills to an art form. With her help, you can promote true and lasting change for educators.” —Barbra Blender, MA, San Francisco Quality Counts Coach

“Constant Hine is a unique treasure in this field—a professional who began as an early childhood teacher and now, a wisened advocate for teachers, truly understands what needs to happen in classrooms for real improvement to occur. Attending conferences and classes may be informative, but without serious reflection on one’s practice, little change will occur. In Transformational Coaching for Early Childhood Educators Constant expertly pinpoints for coaches how to work with teachers to promote reflection and real change.” —Roger Neugbauer, executive director, World Forum Foundation


“ECE policy makers invest a lot of resources into classroom coaching, but all too often without a framework that will result in truly transforming classroom practice. Constant Hine provides an excellent guide toward change and one of the most useful books on coaching I’ve seen.” —Billie Young, Early Childhood and After School Systems Consultant
