She lives in New York City with her husband and two children. Dear Josie, As of this year, I am the director of a school for children from two and a half years to four years. But that year in the classroom is certainly not a necessary one. If your feelings are the same, you are not being selfish. There are many working parents who wish they had the ability to do the same thing.
Preschool becomes particularly valuable for children when they are in a threes program.
Then, children have better listening skills and more interest in sustained play with other children. That is a wonderful time for your daughter to begin school. Most important is schooling for the child from three to five years of age. Watch this if you are tired of being toy referee.
