SAHMs of preschoolers...

If you were going back to work after being a sahm after 3 years what schedule do you think would be better for the child?
#1- full day of preschool 3 days a week and 2 full days with grandparents.

OR

#2- 5 days a week at half day preschool and all afternoons with grandparents?

On one hand I think #1 because there are less transitions and drop offs and pick ups. But on the other hand, 8-9 hours away from me at preschool may be too much to handle being that this is the first time EVER leaving me. Thoughs??

option 1 - too much back and forth in the car with 5 half days....That is how I felt...so that is what my then 4 yr old will be doing in Sept!

It depends on your child, but I would say option 2.

We are super close Chat Icon and I rarely leave for more than a few hours, grandparents are only ones that have ever babysat.

I think # 1 would be best for your DC, the other way is too much running around!
