[quote=Anonymous]Our nanny was a preschool teacher and DD (2.5) does know her letters, numbers, shapes and colors (all colors and what colors combined make other colors) as well as about 25 sight words. Nanny is teaching her to read now. Academics were important to me, too and DD has really thrived and is always asking what something "says" and how to sound it out so it has been a perfect match with her personality and Nanny's skills. That said, I don't think it really matters in the long run. DD has always been ahead of her peers because of Nanny, but it generally all evens out once the kids are in elementary school. What Nanny has given her - which is invaluable now and in the long run - is a love of reading/books. Now that is one thing that does translate into academic success. [/quote]
