[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, my 3 almost 4 year old just finished her first semester at UMD LEAP program. She did the summer session. Last year she was in the Montgomery County PEP program. I like both programs as PEP really helped with her academic skills and LEAP did a great job with speech therapy. As you all know, PEP is 5 days a week, half a day program. DD was in daycare in Gaithersburg for half day and the school bus brought her to PEP for the afternoon. LEAP however, is only 3 days a week, half a day. Working moms....how did you work this out during the school year? I would love for DD to go to both LEAP and PEP during the Fall.[/quote]

My DS is almost 3 year old, speech delay, and he is in full day daycare in Gaithersburg. When he turns 3, I am told that the school bus can take him to PEP program in the mornings 5 days a week. I hesitate to make the final decision because he will completely miss the daycare preschool programs (9-noon) 5 days a week. He loves the daycare preschool program because he can play with art/music, go to playground, and learn letters/colors/shape with other kids. Pretty much other than 9-noon daily, other time are just nanny care time, not educational at all. I hear that PEP program also offers in the afternoon  5 days a week, did your DD dropped the afternoon nap last year at 3 years old? Was that a tough adjustment for dropping the nap?

I am interested in UMD LEAP program, hear a lot of good things about it for their speech program. But, we are both working parents, no nanny, and there's no way for us to take him to LEAP program.  [/quote]
