Tips and Tricks to Finding the Right Preschool

Woman Reads to Kids in Preschool Class

Picture it: your little one waltzing into their classroom with a backpack bigger than they are, a lunchbox packed with goodies, and a sweet note written on a napkin. As bittersweet as it can feel, sending your baby off to school is one of the most exciting and important things you do as a parent.

It’s a proud moment for all, and finding the best preschool for your family is imperative for success. Whether you’re searching for superb staff, excellent educational practices, or safe and secure childcare, The Breakie Bunch Learning Center has it all.

 

How Do I Choose a Preschool?

It may seem daunting, but choosing a preschool for your child doesn’t have to be complicated. Early childcare and preschool lay the foundation for academic and social development. First and foremost, check out the curriculum and learning objectives of your potential preschool options. At The Breakie Bunch Learning Center, we believe that play-based curriculum, also known as Montessori learning, is the best approach to effective learning.

Second, it’s important to check out the staff members at all potential preschools. To ensure the quality of our education remains as high as possible, all Breakie Bunch teachers are required to have an associate degree in early childhood education, but many of our staff members have even more education and experience. Some childcare centers do not require educational training to teach a preschool class, so double-checking on this one is important.

 

Choosing Convenient Preschool Childcare

In addition to all the criteria listed above, childcare needs to be convenient for your family. After all, it is there to help you! Perhaps the most important convenience factor is location. Fortunately, we have daycare locations in both Waterford and Goodrich, MI, so your local Breakie Bunch center is never too far away from your home, workplace, and your family’s favorite hangout spots.

Some additional convenience factors when choosing childcare are:

  • How they handle scheduling conflicts
  • Whether food and snacks are provided
  • Cost and financial aid opportunities

 

Childcare from Infancy to Elementary School

Among all the other benefits of The Breakie Bunch, we provide childcare for a wide age range, offering convenience and continuity of care for children. Little ones thrive on routine and continuity, so changing schools every year or two can be a struggle for many families. At The Breakie Bunch, we have all ages within our center, from an engaging infant care program all the way up to summer camps for school-aged kids.

This comprehensive approach to childcare helps us get to know our families so you can feel comfortable leaving your kids in our care. We learn about your child from personal, developmental, and educational standpoints, increasing the probability of success once they move on to a kindergarten classroom. After the personalized educational experience in our robust preschool program, your little one will be ready for anything.

 

Preschool and Your Child

Whether your little one has been in childcare from the start or you’re hoping to begin a preschool prep program, The Breakie Bunch Learning Center would love to have you. Give your kids the gift of a great educational start, and see how high they can soar!
