Hello, my name is Jenna. Welcome to my site. When I had to go back to work, I shared my uncertainties with my friends and family. Since I had my child at the same time as my cousins and friends had their own babies, I knew I was in good company. We were all facing the same dilemma at the same time, so we decided to tackle the problem together by setting up a nanny share. We organized the child care so our kids could grow up together and enjoy the same caregiver while we were at work. My site will explore the benefits of utilizing a nanny share in great detail.

Five Myths Of The Preschool Selection Process
Randall Walters
Getting your child into preschool can be a daunting task, resulting in endless myths about the child care selection process.This article separates the myths from the facts.
It Is Difficult to Get Admission
It is true that some schools have tough admission processes, but this truth does not apply to all schools.
Most schools will want to attain age and gender balance. Kids are therefore chosen on this basis. It is purely a game of numbers and the available slots the school wants to fill.
One mistake that most parents make is that they apply to just one school. As a result, it appears difficult to get admission. You can increase your chances of getting admission by applying to more than one school.
You could also get references/recommendation from parents of children attending the school you want. Schools are often eager to build a community and will probably consider the recommendation.
If you miss a place the first time, simply reapply. This way, you demonstrate a commitment and are likely to be accepted the second time around.
Preschool Directors Can Get You Admission
Schools directors are often at the frontline. They are the ones who get to meet prospective parents. You may easily assume that they make all admission decisions.
The truth is that in most schools, admission is handled by a committee rather than one single individual. It is this committee that has the final say on who gets selected.
The Preschool Can Influence Your Child's Admission into an Ongoing School
The ongoing schools make their own independent decisions. They also get their students from many different preschools. The preschool will only give information about a child if requested for it by the director of admissions in the ongoing school.
You Cannot Join the Ongoing School Later
A common myth is that once you miss a preschool place you cannot get your child into the ongoing school. The fact is that your child can still join the ongoing school; whether or not they attended preschool there.
It Matters Who Interviews You
You will generally be interviewed by highly trained staff, based on their availability. The final decision is made by an admissions committee, not one individual. It does not really matter whether you know someone on the admissions board or not.
Getting admission to preschool is not based on who you know. To increase your chances of getting admission, apply to several preschools, such as Kidstown Drop-In Child Care Center, and wait.
