I have just changed my girls to a new daycare centre and could not be happier. I am in NSW so it is just called preschool but DD1 loves it. She is there for about 7 hours one day a week going to 2 days a week next and in that seven hours, week they slowly introduce the school rediness program and in the last term of the year they get a bit stronger with it.

My biggest concern was that DD has atleast 13 years of school ahead, more if she goes to Uni or tafe. I wanted her to be having as much fun as possible before going to school. I like that the day care is helping her get ready without really making it about school. She has 3-4 teachers in her room during the day and 2 of them are Early Childhood Educators and so is the director.
