Switching Preschools

I am so overwhelmed right now. My 15 month old is in a two day a week preschool program. I don't really need anyone to watch her, but I wanted her to have some interaction with other kids. I would like to switch her to a MDO program in the fall, mainly b/c of the cost, although I have had a couple of minor issues with the school. I don't know if I should go ahead and take her out of her school and be in nothing until the fall or if I should just wait until then and switch her out of one and into the other. She has such a hard time with seperation anxiety that I want to make this as easy as possible. If someone out there has any advice it would be great.

Also, if anyone has a recomendation for a great MDO program in Frisco that would be helpful.

If you have no problems with the school. It would be less traumatic if you left her there and then transfer her to the next school. Because it would be only once change in such sort amount of time.

Hi M.,
That is so hard - I feel for you. 14-15 months was when my son seemed to have another spike of separation anxiety as well and I just happened to have been working on a project for 30 days for my old boss (I am a SAHM normally). Leaving Jackson each day left me with frayed nerves, knowing he was having a hard time through it all. I guess the only feedback I would have is to do what you feel is the right thing and have no regrets. I don't have an opinion of whether you should switch or not - just that you are the Mom and what you end up deciding to do is going to be great since you are the one who knows best for your munchkin.
Best of luck to you!

p.s. I may be starting a MDO two days a week in my home for toddlers this summer but am waiting to see if another business is going to need my time. I am currently homeschooling my toddler (20 mos) from a toddler curriculum I purchased. If you would be interested I am happy to keep your email on file - just send it to me. I should know something in the next month or so. Thanks!

Hi M.,

I know it's hard to find a good day care and to feel like your child is being well cared for. I worked in a day care for 10 months so I could be close to my daughter. We were both sick every other week and she suffered from several ear infections. I decided that with my love for children and knowledge of child care I wanted to open my home to other parents to provide them with a loving Christian home that they can feel safe about. I've been in business for a year and things have been great. We even decided that the kids would need a bigger play room so we are building a new house in McKinney just off 121 and Alma. We should move in at the end of April. I wanted to let you know that I do have an opening for full or part time care. My daughter is turning 2 this month and would love to have a little girl friend to play with. So far I have had all boys. Don't get me wrong, boys are great, but there is something extra special about little girls. I'm sure you understand. If you would like more info please call me or email me. ###-###-####
Thanks,
M.
