Does anyone have any experience with daycare regret? We switched daycares but the new one has been pretty horrible. Would it be terrible and confusing for DD to go back to the other? To note- the reasons we switched have nothing to do with quality of care etc. at original daycare but only the fact that the new facility goes until Kindergarten and she would age out of the original facility after this year. She is 2. |
I'd go back. She knows the place and the ppl there, so it's the least confusing/disruptive route to remedy the current situation. |
+1 Go back if you can. |
People are not reading. You mentioned she would age out of the original center after this year, which means you would transition her back and then have to transition. Her gain after a year? Not a smart move. |
Without a doubt, I’d go back & spend the next year looking for your next place. She will adapt easily back to the original place. And then you are just in the same situation next year, adapting to a new place that is hopefully much better. |
We made that exact mistake. New place looked great when we visited, but then the teacher was changed at the new place and the new place was awful for DC.
We begged for our old place to take DC back and they did, thanks be to God. |
Agree with this. Go back, and next year ALL of her friends will be going to a new program. Perhaps several of you will end up at the same place, etc/ And that gives you this winter to find better programs and apply to those for Fall 2025. If your old program has space, they would welcome you back! |
It's not age out. Pre k is 3 or 4.
Young children must play, learn socio emotional then academics |
