Don't know if this is the right place to post this or not, but I wanted to get opinions on preschooling. I wouldn't want to send dd who is 3 to a daycare/preschool, but maybe one that is out of a woman's home w/like 6 other kids and the teacher has an early educ. degree.
DD is hitting this "I am ready and wanting to learn everything and want to be doing activites and crafts ALL day long" stage. It's great, I want to embrace it, but feel I can't keep up.
With her and ds at 18 months and TTC and knowing DH is going to be gone more in school, I think I'm panicking that I need some kind of help (I don't have any help like a lot of other mamas here other than my wonderful DH). So, I was thinking of a preschool like this 2 days/week for a few hours OR hiring these 2 young girls I know as "mother's helpers" 2 days/week for a few hours (each one comes once a week). I think dd would have a lot of fun at the preschool, but also like having my kids w/me.
Please help and give advice...maybe I'll cross post this in the homeschool section too and see what they have to say over there too!
