Babies by the Park

Speaking to one of Tinkerbell's teachers today, made me realise that perhaps we were a little crazy!

I didn't realise that checking out 20 nurserys before you choose one, wasn't normal, perhaps its the only daughter thing? When we moved further away from the preschool I decided to check out another 5!

But I keep on coming back to how fantastic the teachers are at Babies by the Park preschool, they're full of energy, cuddles and always happy, just what you want when you drop off your kids. Since my daughter started over 3 years ago no teachers have left unless they're being promoted to new roles in new centres that they are opening. It is a very local school the children have Chinese everyday and I think the standard is high. They prepare them to do show and tell every week in both English and Chinese so that at the end of K2 they can get up on stage and present in front of 300 parents. I would be nervous doing this!!!! But free play and sport isn't ignored either, the kids have swimming, rugby and hip hop every week.

What you really can't ignore though is how happy she is going into school.

A few years on...

I thought it had been a few years since I blogged, but I am ashamed to say its been 8 years!!

Since the last time I blogged, we have moved country twice, got married and had a daughter! We've now been living in Singapore for 3 years and I have got the best job in the world teaching kids how to swim.
