DD has been in the same center 3 days a week for the last 15 months and is doing well there. Lately, the enrollment has been down due to laid off parents so staffing has been cut. Little things have been happening (leaving the kids unattended for 1 minute to run across the hall to get something being the worst example) that have made me raise an eyebrow. I still feel she is getting a good education, has great friends and is overall safe there.
Another center is the same cost and offers more - smaller class sizes, more teachers assistants, more activities, much better outdoor play area, monthly activities (musician, magician, puppet show, pet-the-animals, etc).
We plan on moving within the next year so she will definitely be transitioning into a new place within a year.
So my question is, is transitioning multiple times in a year "bad" for kids? Would you stay with the center she is in (devil that you know, loyalty until they can get enrollment up)? I go back and forth on this every day.
