1) hi mummies, for those who have a choice between half day and full day childcare, and have experienced both, I would like to hear from you which one is better in terms of sleep & learning? heard that some parents tried half day but this caused the afternoon nap to start even later and full day was better. 2)Is it ok to start with half day and switch to full day, as some CCs say this will only traumatise the kids 2x instead of 1x. 3)Also some CC says that it's better to spread the learning as compared to trying to teach them lots in half a day. will they miss out alot if they only attend half day CC? thanks all for yr insights :)

I would say best to put full day, in any case if you want to fetch your child early you have the option of doing so. Also if you need to attend to something or run errands, you can pick y our child up at a later timing. However if you opt for half day there is no exception at all. Also nap time is very important. If you pick your child up after lunch. He will also need time to settle down which maybe a little too late to have a nap. Please consider.
