Daycare moms of toddlers....WWYD?

DS is in a chain daycare center so they have a educational curriculum, he is only there 2 days a week though.

Would you send him to nursery school in addition to that or do you think two days of a daycare curriculum is fine?

He will be 3 in Sept.

Re: Daycare moms of toddlers....WWYD?

DD is in the same situation right now - she goes on Tues and Thurs.

In September I am going back to work FT so she'll be going to daycare FT. If she was still going PT, I would not have her go to nursery school in addition to the 2 days of daycare.

I wasn't sure if I was going back to work or not so I checked out a few pre-schools and IMO, DD is already ahead of what they are teaching them there. I would have just kept her at daycare for the 2days a week.

If you both like the daycare, I would probably send him there a couple more days. I am basing that on my child to some degree--it takes him time to warm up to new people and situations, so I think staying in the same situation would be better for him. If your child is looser about this, it might not matter as much.

Price it out also--you may spend more on daycare and nursery school than two more days of daycare, but I could be wrong.

This is what I did...
I had dd in nursery school 2 days a week and a sitter the other 3. It wa costing me alot more to do this. I am now sending dd to a phenomenal preschool/daycare center and its costing me less then what I paid and the teachers are awesome! DD is so happy now. She fit in well.

I would either leave it at the 2 days in the daycare center or change it to 3 days there.
