Choosing a preschool is the first step in your child’s educational journey. With so many options available, it can be a daunting choice for first-time parents. To narrow things down, here’s a list of three signs that a preschool is a great match for your youngster.
A Good Reputation
Check the reviews! You can find out so much about a preschool by judging the content of its website, but also the content of its online reviews. Just know, however, that sometimes the only people who leave reviews are the people who had enough of a profound experience (either good or bad) that they were moved to seek out the review site to leave their thoughts. For a more unbiased, general critique, check the Google review, since Google often requests reviews from people it notices visited certain businesses based on its location detection. You should also never hesitate to ask the school for references. Be sure to check out Kids ‘R’ Kids’ extensive video testimonials from parents just like you!
A Warm Environment
Since many preschools host open houses, be sure to ask any and all questions you may have. It’s important to learn their policies on discipline, potty training, meals and snacks, as well as any other concerns you may have. Don’t just do a quick walkthrough of the establishment—really take some time to hang out with your child at the preschool’s open house. Try to judge if it’s warm and inviting or a cold and institutional. Talk to the teachers about their educational philosophy and curriculum. That should give you an idea of their scholastic qualifications, as well as their childcare capabilities. Finally, take a moment to make sure there are no safety hazards and that the facilities are sufficiently sanitary.
A Happy Preschooler
The open house is a great time to sit down with your little one and discuss their thoughts, questions and concerns regarding the school. Make sure they have a voice in their preschool selection, as well. Ultimately, your child is going to be the person spending the most time at this preschool, so make sure they’re comfortable and ready to learn.
Curriculum
Each school might have a different approach to how they teach, but it’s important that they challenge your preschooler academically, socially and emotionally. Schools that incorporate advanced technology, various extracurricular activities, and hands-on learning will prepare your child for kindergarten while incorporating plenty of fun!
