[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you live reasonably to activities for toddler (library, playground, museums), then you don’t need to out her in preschool. Maybe enroll her in some little classes like Music Together or Gymboree or something through the local public park system but those are seasonal and less expensive than a drop-off program.[/quote] My experience with my children was that by age 4, it was difficult to get them to behave appropriately in a lot of these weekly classes. Everyone was happier with at least half day preschool. I agree with OP that her older child will likely need some preschool time, especially with a newborn at home limiting the amount of noise she can make and time the caregiver will have. OP, this poster is right that you could make this work, but you will need a really good nanny to pull it off. The part time nanny, with mom/preschool the other days could cut your nanny cost by 1/3 or more. It's something to consider.[/quote]
