Our two ended up in a daycare centre near there as it happens and although we shared exactly the same sentiments about home based care as Sophie because that's what they were used to in the UK, I must say they're both as happy as larry there. I'd still have them with a childminder out of preference, but daycare is by no means a bad alternative in our experience.
Good luck!
Hi gorstsmit,
Thanks for the sharing, would you mind to share which daycare centre you're using? We haven't decided the area for permanent stay yet, I might be able to use it later.
Regards,
Nicole
