Hi!
I am new to thebump, I actually just made this account to ask other HarCo mom's about pre-school recommendations. We just recently moved to HarCo and I don't have too many "mom" friends to pick the brains of. My daughter is 2.5 years old and we are considering putting her in daycare when she turns three. I wanted to look into pre-schools now and gather information. I didn't know if anyone could recommend a pre-school?
I am not sure of questions that I need to ask either? I am trying to google some information now, but I would also like the help/advice from some real moms!
TIA!

Re: HarCo Moms!!
You mentioned pre-school and then said you plan to put her in daycare at 3. Are you looking for both?
For pre-school I highly recommend the Bel Air Athletic Club. We were really happy with their program. They follow the same type of curriculum as the public schools and the teachers are all wonderful. We had my son there for their 2-year program and briefly for the 3's. (I had to pull him out and put him into daycare when I went back to work.)
My daughter has been going to the Y Journeys in Abingdon since she turned 3 (last April) and we couldn't be more pleased with the situation. They follow a curriculum and mix up a healthy amount of academic time with play time. It's also a daycare center, so she's there all day while we're at work.
I'd be happy to tell you more if you have any questions.
I don't have any suggestions for preschools, but I recommend joining Chesapeake Mommies, which is a moms group in Harford & Cecil counties, that has an informative message board. You might get some good suggestions there, too.
It's www.chesapeakemommies.com.
Haha your like their spokes person. T would be proud.
I can't get on at work, so my account has been deactivated. boo
