You're already doing the work of three people. And the latest research from Stanford and Harvard shows that women are using AI tools at significantly lower rates and in significantly less efficient ways than men. This means one of the most powerful time-saving tools available right now is sitting on the sideline. In our industry, where directors are already managing staff shortages, licensing compliance, parent communication, and daily behavioral crises before 9 am, that gap isn't just a statistic. It's time, energy, and capacity walking out the door.
In this session of Tiny Chair Academy, Dr. Teri DeLucca from Impact Early Education joins Meghan Cornwell to cut through the noise and get practical. No tech talk. No jargon. Just real, ready-to-use strategies that childcare directors and owners can pick up and apply the same day.
You'll walk away with:
- The real reason women in leadership are slower to adopt AI — and why it has nothing to do with ability
- 3 specific ways to use AI this week to save time on communication, planning, and documentation
- A mindset reframe that helps you see AI as a professional skill — not a shortcut, and not something to be suspicious of
- A first look at Luma, an AI tool built specifically for the early childhood space, designed to support the work directors do every day
The human connection at the heart of early childhood education isn't threatened by AI. It's protected by it , when you have the margin to actually show up for your team and your families. That's what we will focus on. Let's get your time back! Come ready to learn something you can use before the week is over.
