were looking at nursery for our daughter who is 18 months. We've had some quotes and we think their rather expensive.
We want to know what the benefits are of getting her into a nursery she would only be going for one morning a week.
At the moment husband works mon -friday and I look after her . I work sat and Sunday and he has her. It does seem silly to waste money on the nursery when he is available to have her. If we decide to put her in I would change my shifts so the morning she goes in example Wednesday I would go to work which then gives me a day off at weekend for our family time which at the moment we don't get any off only on evenings when he's home from work for few hours. plus I think it will do her good to have a break from bring wiwith me constantly.
I'm really in two minds about putting her In I think it will do her social skills good but can I justify the money for it when we have just bought a house and needs work doing on it ect. its her speech mainly will it improve that. will she gain more confidence. will she be a bit more out there as although she's not shy she always seems to be the one sitting back in things and waits for other kids to get their toys and things like that. I do currently take her to 2-3 playgroup and activy sessions a week so we do get social skills ffrom them but she always has me near.
is your child in nursery have you noticed a difference. I'm wanting something I can read and show to my husband that yes it will make a difference
