The Baby Mama of Levi Ackerman
So I’ve already decided on which I chose but I just wanted everyone else’s (particularly black Americans since I am one and I feel like black Americans can understand my dilemma more ) ideas..
my 3 year old is making the transition from his in home daycare to preschool..
there are two preschools i am interested in.
Preschool 1
Montessori, brand new beautiful building, ran by an Indian American with mostly white teachers (the dynamic between the Indian and white lady seemed very tense) the owner/ director (the Indian lady) built the building herself and her son is a computer whiz who graduated from Carnegie. The campus also has a butterfly garden.. again the campus is simply gorgeous there’s a pond and a performing arts center. Music is a big thing there. The campus is surrounded by a huge security gate. The kids don’t have to wear a uniform. $250 wk
Preschool 2
Modeled like a baby kindergarten. Located in a strip center (in the corner, if you’re not looking twice you’ll miss the daycare) doors locked and must ring a buzzer in order to come in. It also seems since Covid they are not even allowing parents inside to drop kids off and checking kids temps at the door. Ran by an older Black woman from NOLA. Most of the teachers their are black. From the tour it seems the kids love and respect the director (the children were in another room watching movies with another teacher while I toured, of course my temperature was checked prior to me being allowed inside). The director also told me her son graduated from Howard. And another thing is that the kids get home cooked meals Nola style for breakfast and lunch. Children have to wear a uniform.
$120 wk
Both schools follow a schedule and have recess.
My son is black. Can be a little mischievous as any 3 year old could be especially when he’s tired. But overall a fun loving guy who loves to make new friends and spend time outside.
which preschool would you say is best
