[quote=Anonymous]I honestly only looked at in-home daycares and that decision was mostly due to cost. I just could stomach spending 1500+ a month on daycare and I was so behind in looking that I knew I would never even get off a wait list.. That said we loved our home daycare. I liked that my son was the only infant there. I really like the mixed ages. I felt they were more flexible in terms of his napping schedule. She did take 1 week of vacation a year but always told us well in advance so we could book our own vacation around that time. She also had an assistant and an older daughter that helped her if she was sick (which she never was.) Oh and she was opened even on snow days because her commute was just down stairs. That was a huge plus for us. Centers tend to close more due to snow. As far as curriculum and such... I don't now why an infant would possibly need a curriculum. When our son turned 2 we moved him to a preschool/daycare for ages 2-5. Which i guess I can see as a con because it involves transitioning to a new place. [/quote]
