Socialization.

So then you’re looking for a bubble, or closed playgroup? Ie 2-3 families that meet for regular play dates and agree to only interact with each other.

No! Please don’t send your child to preschool in light of the new climbing cases and complications to young children.

Just skip the whole idea until you’re established in your new home/neighborhood and get to know other parents first.

Just send your kid to preschool

Share search on the nanny forum

Class list at the preschool (if it’s dl)

Facebook pod groups

Next door

Neighborhood listserv

Look for a nanny share

Good luck! You’re really late to the game.

We're moving to Vienna, VA in a few weeks. Any advice on how to join an existing preschool pod or get something like this started? How are people coordinating in this area?
