If you’re reading this there’s a pretty good chance that you’re either looking for a preschool/daycare or that decision is looming in the near future.
(And boy does the time fly by! You’ll blink and it’ll be time to choose.)
There’s a lot to consider and it can be overwhelming.
A lot of parents focus on the logistical things- which is completely reasonable! It’s important to consider if it’s on your way to work or if you want a center vs a more homelike environment.
Those types of features are definitely something to think about.
But it always breaks my heart when I hear parents say after all that research they’re still facing challenge after challenge after they enrolled their child/ren and it turns out to be the completely wrong environment for their kid.
It stings a bit more too if you’ve shelled out some cash for a registration fee if we’re being honest…
I want to remind you if that’s the situation you’re in now- it’s not become to some parental failure or lapse of judgment. There are lots of places that check all the general positive marks and then end up not working out.
The factors that can make a real difference between a quality preschool and the ones that don’t work out aren’t always as obvious as a nice-looking classroom or big playgrounds.
With over a decade in the early childhood field, I have an advantage of knowing what to look for and what questions to ask- things that parents might not necessarily think of, which is okay!
That’s what I’m here for.
In this MudRoom episode, I’ll be sharing what to look for when picking out a preschool and how that makes a difference in care.
So next time you go on a tour you’ll have some clarity about what actually makes a great daycare/preschool and you can keep a sharp eye out for those green (and red) flags before enrolling.
