With 2023 fast approaching, for many families, the time to send your little one to childcare or preschool is just around the corner. It’s a big decision, and finding the ideal fit is critical, both for your child’s happiness and development…and your peace of mind. 

Your child’s reading skills are integral to their future academic success and overall development.

To help alleviate the inevitable stress of understanding this government program we’ve answered some of our parents’ most common questions.
