[quote=Anonymous]Hi,

My 2 y. 8 month old son has been with our wonderful nanny for over 2 years (while we work).  It's a great situation, and for a number of reasons, I've been reluctant to change it.  However, we are approaching the time when I want to start introducing him to more structured preschool-like environment.  But I don't even know where to begin.  Another complication is that we've only taught him our native language so far (not English or Spanish), but I'm hoping it's a slight complication -- from experience of other kids, they adjust and pick up English pretty quickly at this age.

I would really really appreciate your thoughts on: (1) should we start with part-time preschool?  do they even exist? (2) if full-time, my understanding is, we have to wait until the next school year - that is, September 2013 - to enroll him.  right?  (3) how would you start your search for either part-time or full-time preschool?  any good recommendations on literature about getting this process started? (4) I would truly appreciate all recommendations of specific preschools.  we live in U Street/Logan Circle area now, but may move within the next year. Mt. Pleasant/Crestwood/16th Street Heights are possible choices; Cleveland Park and Glover Park are possible alternates.

Dear community, thanks in advance for your help.  And, if you think I am too late or too clueless, please hold your wrath and let this one go.

Thanks so much,
