Opinions on Spanish immersion daycare in Bethesda/Chevy Chase

Hi, I have started a new day care in Bethesda/Chevy Chase. Several moms have asked me to think about offering an all day spanish immersion program for 2-5 year olds. I am from Peru but also fluent in English (went to college at American and Hopkins).

Learning a second language is so easy at age 2, 3, 4 but I realize its also easy for kids to lose it without regular practice. The language programs I've seen in the area are mostly 1 and 2 hours a week which is rather limited. What I would do is provide a full day program, maybe 1 day a week or even full time. I would appreciate any feedback other moms have on whether a Spanish immersion day care would be worth looking at.

Thanks.

www.ChevyChaseReggio.com. We incorporate Spanish but it is not an immersion program yet. Just wondering if that would be worth offering. Maybe I could do one full day of immersion at least, 1 hour a week doesn't seem like it would do very much.
