I'm looking at a centre for my kids after DD1 doing FDC when she was a bubba and both girls since doing alternative care.
At the moment I dro them off at approximately 7/7.30am and they are picked up by 5.30pm. Most mornings they have breakfast at daycare. Some days they have a smoothie in the car or something similar.
I have a pretty good grasp on questions I want to ask the centres I look at. But are there any that people ask specifically of a centre (as a pose to FDC)?

Can girls have breakfast at a centre in the morning if it's an early morning?
Has anyone had any experience in Open Plan Learning for 2.5 - 5 year olds? Whats your experiences with this??

Any advice for me regarding centre based care as a pose to FDC? The girls need more exposure to kids thier own age as well as some more structure and proper learning. While FDC offers this, I can't get them both into the same place on the same days, but there are a couple of centres that i'm looking at that i can get them both in.
