I am a stay at home mommy to an amazing little 15 month old girl. We are having some money problems and I have to get a job. I was hoping maybe something part time because I am scared to death to put my Alyssa in daycare. (I worked in daycares and so i know the junk that can go on in them. not all of them are like that I know, but I am still freaking out.) I am looking for a RELIABLE place for my daughter. I am open to mother's day out programs and possibly in home daycare or a center. Price is definately an issue and I can't afford those "fancy-shmancy" really expensive places. I am looking in the west Plano or Frisco area. please help me mommies! I am very nervous about all of this and need people's input! thank you sooooooooo much! :)

What can I do next?

We chose Soraya Montessori Academy- 6000 Custer Road in Plano. Phone ###-###-####. This is a warm, nurturing small school Montessori environment which gives individual care and attention to our children. No Montessori school can beat the tuition cost which includes breakfast, morning snack, hot lunch and afternoon snack. No additional cost for snacks or lunch prices. Full-time tuition is so amazing and you don't have to worry about extras such as early morning care and after school care--great for working Moms--open from 7:30am to 6:00 pm. Also- very limited vacation calendar great for working parents. All inclusive amazing tuition price. You are paying for the quality care and Montessori education in a small scale warm "super clean" school environment. You can tell many other private Montessori schools have higher prices for the large buildings, fancy chandeliers and the fluff that does not calculate into the individual quality care and attention. I researched all over the internet and visited/toured many Montessori schools around the Plano area and did not feel comfortable with large size Montessori commercial feeling environments and high student/teacher ratio for my young children. It is truly a "hidden gem" like the other Mamasource Mom said (word of mouth advertising must keep tuition cost low). We are a very very happy family now and my husband and I can go to work in peace because of Soraya Montessori Academy!!

My twin girls have been very very happy at Children's Choice which is in East Plano at Jupiter and the G.B. Tollway. Price seems reasonable to me and they are open long hours. I have friends whose children have been there for years and they are very happy too. My girls get up and beg to go to Children's Choice.

It is wonderful that you have been able to be with her for so long, and I am sad for you that you are having to head back to work. Let me know where you live, and I might be able to help out. ~A.~
