Hi
I have put my DS down for pre-school, starting in September 2009, when he will be just 2 months shy of his third birthday.
I'm a SAHM and DS's only carer. He's never been to nursery. My parents live a few hours away but look after him for the odd hour occasionally. We visit friends with children his own age but at 21 months, they don't really play together. We go out every day and attend two toddler group sessions most weeks. However, as is common with us paranoid mothers, I'm a little concerned that he'll have problems mixing.
I have his name down for a village creche starting in September which can be for either 1, 2 or 3 mornings a week. He's a sensitive, thoughful and loving little boy and I want to help him get used to spending time away from me, in preparation for pre-school.
Chatting to a friend of mine today, she feels he'll be fairly 'old' when he starts pre-school and that he may have problems mixing. She's suggesting putting him in pre-school earlier.
Any views or experiences of such things?
Thanks!

Should I start him at pre-school earlier than 3 years?
