My twins will be 3 in April. They will start pre school this Fall. I work two 10 hour days and we have a part time nanny that watches them the 2 days that I work from 730am-7pm. I am home with them the other 3 days of the week and my husband is home on weekends too (he works 10-11 hour days Mon-Friday). My kids have never been to day care or any other kind of group setting without me. The only other people who have watched them are: grandparents, my husband's cousin and a neighbor.
I am going back and forth between two pre schools. I work Tues/Thurs, so I really want Monday/Wednesday pre school so I can have time to go the gym, grocery store, doctor, etc without having to drag them with me (what is what I do now-I don't go to the gym at all right now b/c the gym doesn't have childcare). Also, I could help volunteer at the school and be the one that drops them off and picks them up.
One school offers 9-1130 am and the other school is 9-1pm. I'm not sure what is best! The 4 hour days sound great for me to have time to get to the doctor if needed and run errands. But, is it too much for kids that haven't been out of the house?
What do you think?
Thanks for your help!
