[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any single parents perspective?[/quote]

Single parent here.
This was my daughter's first year in a preschool; she will be 3 in two months. Yes it was cheaper than her daycare, but because it is a Preschool program within a private school, they have a "school calendar". I assumed they went by PGCPS but they do not (that is SOOOOO inconvenient!). So back in August, I went over the dates and asked family (my mom) or 2 close friends what dates could they keep her. Luckily my mom works from home so her schedule is more flexible than mine (teacher) and her school is 5 minutes away from my job so I am able to pick her up before 4pm. But there are some dates that changed or that I overlooked that I had to scramble to find someone to watch her and it sucks. I do wish Preschool programs would operate like daycare and not school no matter if it is in a center or an actual school. I love how much she is thriving there but I am considering switching back to "daycare" just for not having to panic over who is going to watch her on those random days off. [/quote]
