The post is pretty clear that the child moved from an in-home daycare to pre-school.
The post also clearly states that "The age range is infants to 2 1/2" and the kid was moved at 2 1/2 years old.
Why is this weird? Is your kid not ready enough for pre-school at 2 1/2?
I agree with recommending Rosa.
I also highly recommend Rosa.
Anonymous wrote:For Arlington, I'd personally look at the in-home daycare providers. Arlington County has a special county division that oversees their operation, so I think the quality is higher than the rest of the area. When I looked around for my child, I initially wanted the daycare center but ended up liking the in-home providers more.

And, i have one i'd highly recommend - Rosa Huaman who operates Rosita’s Family Daycare in Arlington, VA.

My daughter ‘graduated’ this summer when she turned 2 ½, moving on to preschool, so she is no longer there. My daughter loved it there and deeply misses Rosa who did an amazing job taking care of her for over 2 full years. During this time, I never had a single complaint. You can tell just how much Rosa truly cares for the children she takes care of. They become part of her family!

Rosa exceeded my expectations for in-home daycare. Rosa cooks homemade healthy food, teaches the kids as much as they can learn, instills great manners, and more. My daughter learned A LOT! She even learned Spanish, in addition to English. When she graduated at 2 ½ years old, she knew the entire alphabet, could accurately count to around 15 (in English and Spanish), and was very prepared for a preschool education (she actually knows more than many older kids).

Rosa is very professional and college educated. The age range is infants to 2 1/2. Rosa has up to 9 kids at a time, with 2 full time assistants. Tell her Sophie’s parents recommended you.

Rosa is AMAZING!
My 2 1/2 year old child started at Kaye Kare in July and seems to really like it. Compared to other places in the area, its a great deal ($225/week). They do a good job. She's learning, while also having a lot of fun. We were actually on the wait list at another preschool, but decided to keep our kid at Kaye Kare since there is a significant price difference and we didn't feel that the quality difference was all that much.

Basically, compared to other preschools in Arlington and Falls Church, Kaye Kare is a great deal. I just don't think the other places were all that much better, if better at all, and they are a lot more expensive (e.g. Ballston Children's Center is a lot more money, but I really didn't like them and many of our neighbors didn't like them either).
