Where your child should be going – an Iowa day care or a

preschool? Though daycare and preschools are often

referred to as more or similar and both of them required

meeting some licensing and accreditation criteria but as

a matter of fact they are quite different from each other.

The biggest difference between a daycare and a preschool

is in the way they accept children. Preschools normally

offer programs designed for children aged between two

and a half to five or six years. On the other hand,

daycare centers serve to a much wider range and accepts

6 to 8 weeks old infants to elementary school going

children during their after school hours.

Compared to daycare centers preschools are more limited in their

operational hours like a few hours every day or a few times every

week but some Iowa preschools are now also offering extended hours

so that working parents can now have their kids taken care of, for an

entire day. Apart from this both a daycare and a preschool should

feature curricula expertly designed to encourage cognitive, social and

also physical development of a child. So as far as it is offering a

suitable program and curricula for your kids overall development you

can choose any one of them as per your exact requirements but there

is one thing that you must be remembering while looking for a

Connecticut daycare or preschool and that is, at this tender age your

kid is not at all ready to begin his formal education and preschools

teaching academic skills or claiming to speed up a kids intellectual

development might not be a good choice.
