my 2 year old

I would love to put my 2 year old DD in a preschool program.  The problem is she isn't potty trained yet and hates when other people change her diaper besides mom and dad.  I took her to daycare for a couple hours a couple weeks ago and she loved it.  Still talks about it and wants to go back but they told me when I picked her up that she cried and screamed when they would change her diaper.  I really want to put her into preschool because I know she would love it and benefit from it.  I was just wondering if anyone had any advice and what I can do to make her more comfortable with having her diaper changed.

Thanks

It really depends on what you're comfortable with, but in my opinion she'll get over it once she gets to know them and the routine.  It's such a short period of time during the day vs. all the positive stuff she'll experience the rest of the time.

Why don't you just try 1/2 day an academically based daycare for a few days a week?  Most run of the mill programs just won't put up with that.  Also if things get better you could consider putting her in starting in January.

I started my son at 2 1/2 but he was really close to PTing and he was in a special program.  I'm already keeping an eye open for Callum and most pre-schools I'm noticing just really want them to be super close to PTing or PT'd.  He has an August birthday so it is going to be tight if I want to enroll him when he is turning 3.
