Growing up with Nathaniel; Day661-Day697

02 December 2015

Week 100! *throws confetti*

Finally the day parents scratch their head 'bout where and when to send your child to daycare, childcare, playgroup and what not. Decision, decisions and decisionsss... SIGH.

On 27 Nov, we brought him to view and explore Kinderland at MOM branch. Looks like he enjoyed playing their indoor playground and ball pit. Maybe he associates the place as indoor playground where we used to bring him. He roamed around with supervision of 奶奶 while we were briefed by the centre admin. Well, we are time-stressed in sense that if we enrol him in Jan, we will be charged at the new price which was $120 more then current fees. And 我还没有心里准备 to send him to school but when I asked him if he liked schooling, he said yes. like. want. -_-"

Then Mommy Elisa and Hamburger Mom highlight to me that Agape is under a new scheme that cost $856 before subsidy. The next thing you know, I have fixed an appointment to view the centre which is 1 station away from 奶奶! Ok, good news was the centre has available seats for him and after subsidy is only $556. So now, which centre to enrol and which is better? Measuring pros and cons, in terms of location, environment, teachers, enrichment, fees... to have and must have a conclusion and decisions before mid-December 2015! *fingers crossed*
