Help me decide...
How many days for preschool.
In september I will have a DS that is 18 months and twins that will be 3.5.
I found a school that will take all 3, 7:30 to 3:30 with all school holidays off (my schedule)
I am torn on how many days to do.
I work 4 days. This year I have a sitter on mondays and my parents watch them 3 days (this is their last year watching them)
Can't decide: 1. 4 days all in school 2. 3 days and 1 day with sitter 3. 2 days in school and one day with sitter.
The money increases a little bit with each day in school vs at home with sitter
I think my twins "need" school 4 days but I worry about my 18 month old....he will be the youngest in a 2 year old class.

Is the 2 yr old room kids that are between 2-3. If so I wouldn't put an 18 month old in there. My ds is 23 months and just got bumped to the next room where the kids are between 2-3 and there is a huge difference between him and the kids that are closer to 3. My ds at 18 months never would have been able to handle being in that room. I consider my ds ahead on many of his milestones and still wouldn't do it.
As far as # of days. I would do 3 at least. Sometimes only 2 days is hard for th to get into a routine there.

Re: Help me decide...
Are the twins going to be in a 3 yr class, or is it pre k? If its just the 3 yr class, I think they are fine with 2-3 days. Plus, if you have a babysitter come to your house, it makes it that much more attractive!!!

I would do all school. They are kept so busy and so fulfilled. I think he will be fine and the older 2 will be great too

You will need a sitter for more days (when one of the kids is sick)!
Be sure you get someone flexible (or have parents as back up).
DS is 3.5 and does school 3 days a week. It's good.
