I would also encourage parents to take their children in to meet the teacher prior to the first day of school. Most schools will have a back to school night/meet the teacher, however if they don’t, I recommend reaching out and asking for 10 minutes to swing by and break the ice. we kindergarten teachers are a special breed and I feel confident saying that any would be happy to see you!

My son is starting kindergarten this fall and we want to make sure he’s ready and comfortable. I’ll be sure to help him try on different backpacks so he can feel good going in on his first day.

My daughter is turning three this years, and we’re looking for a reputable preschool learning center to enroll her to. I’ll keep this tip in mind and plan a shopping trip downtown with my daughter to get her pumped up for preschool!

It is good to know that drop-off is going to be an important thing for my sister to do properly. She might want to try to show him the school beforehand and get him excited to go to.

My significant other and I want our daughter to enroll in preschool, as she has recently turned four. We’ll look to find a reliable childcare service via contacting a few options that are available and determining which would be the best.

My 3 year old just started PreK3 and my 2 year old is still home with our nanny so this has been a difficult transition for us but I am hopeful!
