Greensboro: First Baptist Church Preschool

When I began this blog to seek out part-time daycare options, I didn't realize I had an option one block away from my house.  The First Baptist Church Preschool on Mendenhall and Guilford is wonderful and inexpensive.  Their hours are limited (9 - 1 weekdays), cost for five days is $245 (more for the two year old room).  They take infants from 6 weeks old - children five years.  In the infant room there is a low baby to teacher ratio (six babies maximum).  They might be full for Fall 09 at this point, but babies/toddlers move all the time as they have birthdays.  While their curriculum (particularly for older children) is taught from a Christian perspective, they do not teach doctrine.

Graham: A Storybrook Farm

Located on Rt 54 between Graham and Pittsboro.  Vern Nice People, and reasonably priced. One big advantage is that if the kids don't go one day they don't charge you for that day.  They also can take children on short notice because they call in more people as the need arises.
