    The 7 Perks of Sending Your Child to Daycare

    The 7 Perks of Sending Your Child to Daycare
    When we decided to pull my son from a one-on-one nanny and put him in daycare last year, I had many of the standard fears.
    Would he settle in? Would he like his teachers? Would his teachers be nice and competent? Would he get sick? What would I do if he hated it? Thankfully, we have had nothing but a wonderful experience with daycare so far. Yes, there are sniffles and that can cause drama over who stays home with the sick kid. But his vocabulary has exploded along with his confidence and play, he's made fantastic new friends, and I never worry when I drop him off in the morning. One of the best parts of my day is hearing how much fun he had when I pick him up in the evening. So here are 7 reasons why daycare is awesome! - By Beth Anne Ballance
