When to send the baby to PreSchool

i am a 24x7 mom and live in a joint family so my baby is pretty pampered by her grand-parents and other helpers. And being the only child she looked a bit bored after she had turned 18month+. So i had sent her to the pre-school. She did not mingle instantly with kids rather teacher told me that she was more comfortable with elders than children of her age. I was taken aback infact it made me work harder to make my baby go to school and make sure that she talks to kids. But things didnt seem to work my way, she fell sick more often, was quiet in the school and didnt get used to idea of eating by herself or the teacher during her meal time.
After 5-6months later i saw a drastic change when she became 2. She started telling me about her friends in school, atleast making an attempt to eat the lunch box and even started reciting poem and enjoying the school.

I will just say 2+years is the right age to send any kid to the pre-school cos the child is able express herself better, is more confident and is potty trained by then etc. There is nothing right or wrong in sending earlier than this age but it might help the child to be comfortable in the environment other the home. So i will suggest all the moms if you are a working mom, try to take sabbatical leave or do work from home coz with career your child's health and development is equally important. Try it, it will not only relieve you from tensions about your LO in the day care but also helps your child to grow with sense of security. Many will argue that so many working moms are leaving the kid after 6month+ of age only but i will say ask a child or his pediatrician which baby did better health wise. Already there is so much of pollution and unhealthy eating habits, give your child a better start for her/his future.


Happy mommying!
