CONSIDER THESE TIPS BEFORE CHOOSING A CRECHE/PRESCHOOL FOR YOUR INFANTS/TODDLERS🌹❤️👌
Referrals- Seek referrals from family, friends or acquaintances that use a potential Creche/Preschool. It’s always better to hear from someone that had used the place rather than relying on what you are told during enquiries.
Environment: At visit to the Preschool for Enquiry, look closely and discern the environment. Does it feel safe for your baby/ toddler? Is it well ventilated, spacious and smell clean? Check the cleanliness of space and security, are all sockets above infant/ toddlers reach? Are the floors tiled (for easy cleaning ) not rugged. Are toys age- appropriate and well organized in there space?
Staff/Communication- Are the staff/ Nannie’s neat, friendly, smiling (children love playful and smiling faces) 😀 Check their interactions with the children this will tell you if they are passionate about working with children😊. Find out how they communicate with parents. You’ll need a place you can easily find out about how your child is doing.✌️
Children: Look closely at the children in the environment. Are they clean, well fed, happy and lively. You’ll always know if a child is not happy,so check their expressions well. Are they free with their Nannies? What age-appropriate activities are they engaged with? Don’t take a child to a place where all they do is watch the screen all day! 🤔
Daily Activities- Find out what they are teaching your children to engage them. Remember your child will be there for long hours, you need to know what activities they are having. If they have a schedule of daily activities that will show how organized the place is.👌
Owners Presence: Please go for a place where the owner is often on ground, especially for the early years! Go for a place where QUALITY CARE is PRIORITY!!!CHOOSE A PLACE WHERE THEY ARE GODFEARING!!!❤️
Finally be prayerfully in making your choice. Let God instruct and direct you and you will not miss it! 🙏🏿🙌Amen.
