Child care and early schooling |
It does not take long for your baby to grow up! In no time at all you may have to return to work and need someone or somewhere for your baby to go where they will be loved, cared for and allowed to mature. Not every mother wants to leave their baby but it is sometimes necessary to look to the future and to look at nurseries and schools while your baby is small. All children need to have contact with others the same age so that they learn from one another. |

There are numerous options for child care and schooling and everyone wants a safe haven that suits their child. In this section I have discussed many of the alternatives and the way in which they work.
The government has increasing control over childcare and is gradually investing more money in this. All staff do need to be qualified and to have experience and there are numerous Health and Safety issues in schools, nurseries etc to safeguard children.
- Do you know the questions to ask?
- Are you aware of the necessary qualifications?
- Had you thought of all the options?
- Do you know the difference between Montessori and Steiner schools?
- Do you know about the Early Years Grant?
