It's been more than two weeks since the baby was born. We once struggled whether to take it to grandparents' home or send it to kindergarten, but later we found that the growth rate of the child is always far beyond our imagination. She is less than 3 years old and often brings us unexpected surprises. Gradually, she began to slowly repeat the picture books we told him; He easily mastered nearly 30 English words ... I also slowly found that her life at home became boring, and she preferred to go out and play with other children, not just her mother. Therefore, from the end of last year, I began to look for suitable care for my children, leaving professional things to professional people to do, which not only liberated myself, but also liberated the elderly, hoping to make children's lives more fulfilling and happy.
I started doing a lot of homework myself, and when it comes to children, I become picky and careless. From the positioning of kindergartens, we have made a detailed study on curriculum arrangement, teaching staff and environmental sanitation, and then selected the most suitable kindergarten for children. We must have different expectations for the care of children. Children are still young, so we can be more inclined to look for foster care, and children can get more careful care. I don't know how to express it. Free-flowing children can choose small class system, and the proportion should not be too high. Older babies who are about to go to kindergarten can choose to take classes according to the kindergarten model, synchronize their work and rest with the kindergarten, and synchronize some curriculum arrangements and teacher ratios, which can help the baby experience kindergarten life first and not be afraid to go to kindergarten. Then the other is to choose according to your own economic situation. Now there are many parks subsidized by the government in various regions, so you can pay more attention to them.
1, the price is between 2500 and 3500.
I went to see a few, and I was really not particularly satisfied. Let's talk about the environment first. Because the price is not high, the environment of several nurseries I have seen is not satisfactory. Let me give you an example. Open in a residential area. The small two rooms in the community have been decorated, which is similar to a small dining table. Although there is a large terrace, the space for children's indoor activities is very small and there is no partition. They eat and live in the living room, there is no special small toilet, and it smells when they go in. The only benefit may be that with real-time monitoring, parents can see their children and feel more at ease.
This kind of care is in great demand in the market, and it is suitable for children who have no one to take care of at home. Just find a place to take care of them. The price is also moderate, and the meal cost is about 3000 cents, which most families can afford. If parents have requirements on environment, diet and courses, it is not recommended. This level is basically out of my consideration.
2, the price is between 3500 and 5000.
This kind of care is better, mainly distributed in early education institutions and government Pratt & Whitney Park. I went to see this kind of nursing class, and the environment was better. There is an outdoor sports ground, with two independent floors, close to residential buildings, which is very bright and can bask in the sun. The partition is also quite good, such as music classroom, big action teacher, art teacher, children's toilet and so on. However, one problem with these classes is that the venue is not private enough. Usually, early education classes should still be in class, so the environment will be noisy.
After seeing the environment, look at their curriculum, daily recipes and teacher-student ratio. After all, the children in kindergarten are all children between the ages of 1-3, and they have poor self-care ability and need more careful care.
I summarized the three types of nursing courses I saw:
The first is more education-oriented: this kind of nursery has more "nurturing" than "teaching", and their daily courses are not rich. They accept a wide range of babies, ranging from 6 months old to 3 years old, and the youngest can be well cared for. Besides lunch break, they can also check and monitor at any time.
But their meals are all delivered in a unified central kitchen, and they are delivered by the dining car at two o'clock every day. I think this is quite inflexible. Our family is an allergic baby, so we can't eat many things. We don't have our own kitchen, which is inconvenient. A class has three teachers, a head teacher, an assistant head teacher and a life teacher. Our family is more than two weeks old, and they say that the ratio of babies of our age is 1: 7, and the teacher-student ratio is too low. Although we can move freely, children of this age don't know much about danger. Another thing is that there is no school doctor. If the child is injured, the aunt will simply handle it. This family has no outdoor activities, but they usually push their children to the nearby park to bask in the sun and run. I feel a little unsafe, so I won't consider this.
The second is the government's Pratt & Whitney Park: because of government subsidies, the government's Pratt & Whitney Park is basically a large venue, with large outdoor and indoor activity areas and good zoning. The school doctor helps to check the child's condition every morning, and in case of a small accident in the park, it can be handled in time. Have their own kitchen, the food is a meal at 2: 00, with light taste and rich nutrition.
The course is mainly based on Montessori. I talked to the receptionist. She gave a very unprofessional introduction to Montessori's courses. After all, she did her homework. But they can stay with their parents for a week, so they pay for a week. The process of experience has exposed many problems, and the control over children is not high, but the children inside are still very lively, but the class is chaotic, the main class teacher is not strong in control, and the course is not interactive. The teacher taught her to play with her friends, and it was not Montessori teaching in the true sense. In outdoor time, it is just a bunch of teachers chatting in a circle and occasionally taking a look at the children. After three days of experience, I didn't go. I really didn't like it.
The third is a park with early education classes: two floors with independent land rent, outdoor small gardens for outdoor sports, and some small animals. The indoor partition is an early education class downstairs and an early education class from Wednesday to weekend. When there is no early education class, children in the classroom can also use it, mainly depending on the curriculum arrangement. There is a nursing class upstairs, and the partition is also very good. The teacher is 65438+. It is bilingual teaching, and it is of course good for children to have this English enlightenment. There is no school doctor, but the teacher has been trained in this field, so it is no problem to deal with it simply.
Just when we visited, their children were in class, and then it was very lively. When they opened the door a little, the children greeted them curiously: "Hello, who are you?" Seeing the child in my arms, I said, "Sister, come in and play together." The children are in good condition. This kind of atmosphere shows that teachers usually have low control over them, and children of this age are still quite lively. Have a separate kitchen, experienced a class. Courses are interactive, which can guide children to participate, and then teachers have good affinity.
All the above nursing classes require extra meals, ranging from 400 yuan to 600 yuan per month.
35,000 yuan-1 ten thousand yuan
You get what you pay. Really applicable to all fields! At this price, Tuoban is relatively high-end. Needless to say, the teaching environment is big, sunny and teaching AIDS are imported. Teaching is a combination of Chinese and foreign teachers, and teachers generally have high academic qualifications and high quality. Each school has its own characteristics. The characteristic courses include developing the whole brain system to cultivate children's concentration, willpower, creativity and scientific experiments. The teacher-student ratio is 1:5, the eggs and meat dishes are all organic, the aunt cooks by herself, the nutritionist caters, and the kitchen is equipped with a camera. The sink and toilet are in line with the baby's height, and the environment is basically soft. There's really nothing to be picky about, but mainly depends on the financial strength of parents, otherwise this can really be rushed.
Every mother sends her children to kindergarten, in fact, the most concern is safety. But in fact, for every care worker, safety is their bottom line and the minimum standard. Personally, I am more concerned about children eating well and sleeping well. On this basis, it is best to have fun and finally learn some culture. After all, a little progress of children, in my opinion, is an extraordinary growth.
Personally recommend more than 3500 courses. When choosing a nursing class, parents are advised to go to the scene by themselves or take their children to feel it, but it is not recommended to throw the children into the experience alone. Parents accompany their children to experience a few classes, and they have a high probability of knowing how the teacher's class is and how the children interact. Children don't lie. After all, kindergarten is the first school for children and the first time for children to leave us. I hope my children's first school can make them feel freedom, equality, love and respect, so I choose the best school I can give.
In this way, I hope I can help you choose to take care of your class. If you like me, just pay attention to me. On the way to parenting, you and I walk together.
