Support your child's teachers with the S.E.E.D. Certification®
Calling on her own experience as a teacher and director and the burnout she saw, Alyssa Blask Campbell of Seed & Sew has collaborated with other experts in the ECE field to develop a comprehensive certification program for childcare centers and home based providers.
Why should your child's school be S.E.E.D. Certified®?
Just like all of us, teachers carry biases, triggers, and social programming into adulthood. Most don’t get any training or support on emotion processing. Left unchecked, these biases play into a system of punishment/reward that leaves kiddos disengaged from their education. In the long run, this contributes to a school-to-prison pipeline where children of color are at a particular disadvantage.
When your child's school is S.E.E.D. Certified®, the work you do at home to validate your child’s emotions and regulate their central nervous system will be reinforced in the classroom. In a unified approach, S.E.E.D. Certified® teachers are ready to work together with parents, guiding kiddos toward a brighter, emotionally intelligent future.


With the S.E.E.D. Certification®, your kiddo's school will have...
Teachers who feel seen & supported.

A framework for emotional regulation for the adults and children.

Teachers and families working together in a unified approach.
