A graduate arrives knowing the frameworks cold. An educator trained overseas arrives with years of experience. Three weeks in, both go quiet — at pick-up, in the team meeting, when a term comes up they don't know. You notice around week six. This is the module that gets there first.
Asking for help isn't failing. The educators everyone trusts are usually the ones who ask the most questions.
"Can I ask about something?" Permission first lowers everyone's guard — and it works whether you're a graduate or twenty years in.
You're not trying to become somebody else. Different influences and points of view make a room stronger — different does not mean deficient.
Run with the whole team, so the culture shifts, not just the newcomer: role-plays of the term nobody knows, the meeting where you disagree, the first hard pick-up. Then the First 90 Days pathway, if you want it — four small-group sessions for the new starters themselves, in weeks two to ten.
Are you and your team tired of the slide deck and the online click-fest? Louis's sessions are practical, on your feet and genuinely fun. You'll role-play the moments that actually happen in your rooms — the parent at pick-up, the child who hits, the drizzle at the door — and leave with language you'll use tomorrow.
Educators remember what they've said out loud, not what they've watched.

A sentence or two about your rooms. He'll reply within a business day with how he'd run it and what it would cost.
Tell Louis what you're seeing. He'll come back within one business day with what he'd do, what it would cost, and whether Praxibel is the right fit — a real reply, not an autoresponder.
Tell Louis what you're seeing and he'll build the session around it.
