## Resource

In this empowering episode, host Emily Cleghorn welcomes Antoinette Elliott, mother and owner of ALC Elite Childcare in Suncrest, Georgia. Antoinette shares how her personal experience of isolation as a new mother inspired her to create a family-based childcare center offering flexible scheduling from 6:30 a.m. to midnight. She discusses her staff's specialized crisis prevention training, the importance of guilt-free self-care, and practical advice for finding compassionate childcare. Antoinette reminds mothers that prioritizing their wellbeing ultimately makes them better parents — because you cannot pour from an empty cup.Connect with Antoinette: https://aocelitechildcare.com/ Instagram: @allourchildrenchildcare Take the quiz here: https://freebie.mamahoodaftertrauma.ca/calmquiz If you’re ready to go deeper and connect with a community of women who get it, I’d love to invite you into the Rising Room—our safe space for mamas navigating healing, growth, and motherhood after trauma.
