One Mom's Real Story About Searching For a Preschool

When my oldest was 3, I toured about six preschools in the area, including the "exclusive" Newport Coast Child Development preschool (which turned out to be the worst). I was willing to drive anywhere to find a good preschool, and spent two months calling and observing different preschools. I spent a week at a time in each school, just sitting and observing the children and teachers. I didn't come away with a good feeling about most of the preschools that I saw. The teachers are often overwhelmed and don't have time to really nurture/teach/spend quality time with the children. Some of the teachers are downright mean! They are sweet as pie to the parents when they're dropping off the kids, then become completely different when they've got the kids to themselves. These are little children who don't know how to communicate and are very vulnerable to their environments! Some of the stuff that I saw during my months of observation just broke my heart, not to mention that the "education" or "play time" that the children are supposed to receive is often overstated by these schools. It's mostly just childcare, no matter what these schools say.

If you have had a similar experience a home preschool could be the perfect solution. Mrs. Skeen is very well educated in child development, brain development and the best teaching practices. Also, with a small group of no more than 5 children each child will receive careful attention. Discovery Learning Home Preschool is the perfect solution for parents searching for quality early childhood education for their children.
