[quote=Anonymous]Daycares are generally centers that offer care (and for older kids, instruction) generally from infant through 5/6, sometimes having an KG onsite as well. Preschools are generally only for the preschool years, so 3 (or almost 3 - most don't start at 2, though they may allow a 2.5 yo into the 3's room) through 5/6. They're often part-time but not always. If they're attached to a K-5/8 private school, then there might be onsite aftercare you can opt into, though that's not super common. Either can have curriculum certified by various state and 3rd party institutions, like AMI. Either can have lead teachers with MA in Early Education - or either can be staffed by just regular people who enjoy working with children. [/quote]
