    Which also brings up the discussion about what parents think they want as in she wanted everything you were offering on your website but thought she had to go to a preschool/centre to get it.

    Exactly ~ to be honest I would have answered that with an 'YES in a manner of speaking ~ I am a home based program that offers everything you would get in a preschool but with smaller ratios and lower fees. How can I help you?'

    BTW I hear ya on the phone at quiet time ~ I admit that some days I just take mine off the hook if anyone who KNOWS ME wants to reach me they will call me on my cell which is on vibrate!
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."
