Decision lene se pehle

Kam se kam 2-3 daycares visit karein comparison ke liye, aur agar possible ho to unannounced visit bhi karein taaki aap actual daily environment dekh sakein, sirf prepared showcase nahi. Doosre parents se reviews poochein jo currently ya pehle wahan bache bhej chuke hain. Aur sabse zaroori - apne gut feeling ko bhi importance dein. Agar kuch off lage, chahe specific reason na de sakein, doosra option explore karna behtar hai.

Bache ko naye daycare mein settle hone mein time lagta hai - shuru ke 2-3 hafte transition period hoti hai. Agar is period ke baad bhi bacha consistently upset ya reluctant rehta hai, to caregivers se baat karein aur zaroorat pade to alternative dekhein.
