[quote=Anonymous]We started at Children in the Shoe (East-West) and then switched to Wonders (Edgemoor). They are both good, but for us Wonders is better. Here's what we liked more. 1) Wonders is nonprofit and pays teachers above market rate. Virtually no turnover. Early childhood program benefits because it seems like the after-school programs help subsidize it. Also because they have need-based aid, the kids are more economically diverse. 2) Wonders keeps the kids together for the full academic year. No flow of kids moving up throughout the year. This year, the class my child was in started as an older infant class. As the kids got older, it transitioned into a toddler class with the same teachers (and ratios). The six kids have been together all year. Much more stable. 3) Wonders provides meals and snacks. That said, we found the Shoe to be safe and loving, and I think your child will have a good experience at either. Good luck![/quote]
