ECE PEP RALLY 2025

This room's calling. You in?

MEET THE SPEAKERS

IMAGINE THIS

You walk away from the ECE Pep Rally with clarity instead of questions.
You know what needs to change in your center — and how to start.

You’re no longer guessing your next move.
You’re making decisions with confidence.

You leave with real strategies you can use right away.
Your leadership feels stronger.
Your vision feels clear.

And instead of feeling alone in this work, you’re connected to other childcare leaders who truly understand the responsibility you carry.

This is what the ECE Pep Rally was created to provide.

WHY THE ECE PEP RALLY?

Childcare leaders are carrying more responsibility than ever.

You are expected to lead teams, serve families, manage operations, stay compliant, and still have the answers — often without real support.

Most events offer familiar faces and familiar conversations.
But many childcare leaders have said the same thing: you’re ready for something different.

The ECE Pep Rally exists because you asked for:

  • Real strategy, not surface-level motivation

  • Leadership support, not recycled conversations

  • Fresh voices from the education, leadership, and business industries

This experience intentionally introduces new perspectives and new leaders — people who understand systems, growth, and leadership — alongside voices that respect the work happening inside childcare centers.

The ECE Pep Rally was created to help you move out of survival mode and into confident, CEO-level leadership — with clarity, structure, and support.

Who is the ECE Pep Rally for?

The ECE Pep Rally is for childcare center owners, directors, and leaders who want to lead like CEOs — not just manage day-to-day operations.

If you are responsible for people, decisions, and growth inside a childcare center, this experience was created for you.

Is this event for teachers?

This event is designed for leaders.
While teachers are welcome if they are preparing for leadership or ownership, the content is focused on CEO-level thinking, leadership strategy, and business operations.

What makes this event different from other childcare conferences?

The ECE Pep Rally is not built around hype or recycled conversations.

You will hear new voices and fresh perspectives from education, leadership, and business — alongside leaders who understand the realities of childcare.

This experience focuses on strategy, systems, and leadership growth, not surface-level motivation.

Where is the ECE Pep Rally located?

The ECE Pep Rally will take place in Atlanta. The exact location will be announced on March 8. Seating is limited, and you won’t want to miss securing your ticket.

Will there be a host hotel?

Yes. We will have an official host hotel, with a CEO rate. All hotel details will be announced on March 8.
