I think parents expect to hear at the interview that you have a plan for a learning program but that it doesn't have to be a packaged purcharsed one. In fact a made up one based on what you can find in books and online can be better tailored to fit with what the kids need.

Most of our learning is built into our play as compared to a ok everyone come and sit for circle time sort of thing but a lot depends on your age mix - three of five are 18 months or younger and all are 3 or younger so that causes a different dynamic than if all of them were 18 months and over.

I should be able to start doing more soon as the two pass the 18 months and the baby will still nap in the morning giving us that hour to concentrate on more teacher led activities. But it still has to appear to the kids like a natural part of their day and not just learning in isolation for the sake of doing a program.
