2026 Diaries

Our 2026 collection of ecec diaries is designed to make documentation simpler, more engaging, and highly functional for Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) professionals. With the unique combination of practicality and artistic inspiration, these diaries address the common pain points faced by educators, such as staying organised, meeting compliance requirements, and fostering reflective practices. The new art cover designs, featuring stunning collaborations with renowned artists, bring an added layer of creativity to your daily planning and reflection. These diaries are tailored to support educators, directors, and leaders in the ECEC sector, making their documentation process seamless and meaningful.

Each diary in the 2026 collection has been thoughtfully created with specific ECEC roles in mind, offering role-specific tools and features that align with the National Quality Framework (NQF) and EYLF standards. Whether you're an early childhood educator, OSHC coordinator, or family day care educator, our diaries provide a structured yet flexible way to plan, reflect, and stay compliant. With sections dedicated to weekly programming, observations, and reflection, these diaries help streamline the documentation process while ensuring that learning outcomes are clearly linked to curriculum and regulatory requirements.

The new cover designs in this collection bring a fresh, vibrant energy to your day-to-day work. Featuring original artwork by both First Nations and contemporary artists, the covers reflect themes of community, connection, and growth. These artistic designs are not just visually appealing—they also inspire creativity and connection in both educators and children. The incorporation of these meaningful artworks into the diaries underscores Butler Diaries' commitment to culturally responsive practices and the celebration of Indigenous culture within the ECEC sector.

In addition to the enhanced aesthetics, these diaries address the ever-present challenge of maintaining organisation amidst the busy, fast-paced environment of ECEC. With practical features like page holders, flexible planning sections, and easy-to-use compliance checklists, the 2026 collection empowers educators to manage their workload efficiently while remaining confident in their ability to meet compliance and documentation standards. This collection is the perfect blend of form and function, designed to make your professional life easier, more organised, and inspired.
