Clients Speak

Dawn, Sharon and Kashmiera,

Thank you for participating as a speaker at the First Up Conference 2026. Your contribution was truly appreciated, and we are grateful for the time, expertise, and passion you brought to the event.

We have received very positive feedback regarding the impact of the workshops, and we would like to share a few reflections from educators who attended the conference:

"This was a rich experience with many key points of learning unfolding throughout both days. If I had to narrow it down to one, it would be the importance of allowing every child the space to be seen, respected, loved, and to grow in a community that reflects each member."

"I learned new techniques from the sessions I attended. These new skills will help me empower the children in my classroom environment. I will use what I learned and share these skills with other Pre-K teachers."

"I will take back the importance of early intervention. Advocating for my children and parent."

"Being in a leadership role is about actions and not titles."

"[I will take away] making workforce equitable."

Thank you for your thoughtful preparation, engaging participation, and continued commitment to high-quality professional learning. Your work made a meaningful difference for our attendees.

We hope to continue our relationship with you in the future and welcome opportunities to collaborate again.

Thank you for bringing your excellence to the First Up Conference.

Warm regards,
