![]() It probably seems like only yesterday when you were bringing your newborn baby home from the hospital. You enjoyed those first few months with your little one, and you couldn't fathom the thought that he or she would ever be going off to school. It seemed like you had all the time in the world until that fateful day would come. However, as it always does, time marches on. Now, you're realizing that you need to start making some decisions about your child's preschool. You might be feeling nervous, and unsure about where you should begin to look for a good preschool. We'd like to offer you a few tips that can help you make the right decision. Look for Personalized Attention When kids are young, they need to have a little more personalized attention. It's important to find a preschool that will be able to meet your child's needs. Will the teacher be able to offer a little bit of extra help if it's needed? Will your child feel encouraged to ask for help? These are important questions you should ask. Look for Consistent Rules If there's one thing that three and four-year-olds need, it's consistency. When you're interviewing preschools, be sure to ask the teacher's views on consistency in the classroom, especially when it comes to rules. You should expect the same amount of consistency as you provide at home. Kids need to know what the rules are, and they need to be expected to follow them. Look for a Level of Comfort This goes for both you and your child. A good preschool will allow you and your child to pay a visit to the school before you enroll your child. How does he or she respond to the other children? Does your child seem to enjoy the environment? Do you feel comfortable with the setup, and with the thought of leaving your child there for a few hours each day? If you and your child are both comfortable, you'll both have a great experience. Here at Foundations Christian School, we know how important it is to choose a great preschool. That's why we strive to make ours the best one in Horseheads! When your preschooler attends our preschool, your strong family values will be reinforced, as well as your reliance upon God and building a relationship with Him.

It truly is surprising how fast time flies, one moment your cuddling with your baby and then you'll realize it's time for them to go to school. I agree that it is nerve-wracking to decide which school to go for since we all want the best for our children. I appreciate your list of tips to remind us what to ask when we inquire when it's time for our child to go to school.

Thanks for the tip about considering if a preschool will provide your child with personalized attention. It would make sense to find someone who is going to do so in order to know your child will get a lot out of a preschool. I need somewhere for my daughter to go now that I work full time, so I'll have to consider what kind of one on one care they can give her first.

This article helps to jot down the features that enriched with a best pre-school and specified that a best pre-school would have teachers who help the children to meet their needs as every kid is different from other and have different requirements from others, the school consists of consistent rules that need to be followed by the children, it allows visits of parents and students before enrolling to the school.

I totally agree when you said that we should choose a daycare center that will be able to cater to our child's needs. I hope I find one that is inclusive because my son hasn't spoken until now that he is 4 years old. So I plan to send him to daycare to get more social skills and see if he might start talking by then.
