The Burnout Behind Childcare Assessments

​Assessment is meant to support teaching, not contribute to teacher burnout.

​Yet for many childcare and preschool teams, assessments have become one of the most time-consuming parts of the day. Between observations, developmental milestones, portfolios, parent communication, reporting, and compliance, teachers often spend more time documenting learning than engaging with children.

​Join Dr. Bisa Batten Lewis and Lenita Flores for a practical session exploring how childcare and preschool leaders can rethink assessment systems to reduce administrative burden while improving teaching quality and family engagement.

​In this webinar, you'll learn how to:

• ​Understand why assessment has become a major contributor to teacher burnout.

• ​Shift from compliance-driven documentation to continuous, meaningful observation.

• ​Improve the quality of observations without increasing teacher workload.

• ​Use assessment data to inform teaching, coaching, and classroom planning.

• ​Strengthen family partnerships through authentic documentation and communication.

• ​Create assessment processes that support teachers instead of overwhelming them.

• ​Explore how curriculum and technology can work together to make assessment simpler, more intentional, and more effective.

​Whether you're looking to improve teacher wellbeing, streamline documentation, or build stronger assessment practices across your center, you'll leave with practical strategies that you can begin implementing immediately.

​Reserve your spot and discover how smarter assessment systems can create better teaching, stronger classrooms, and more time for children.
