You'll learn:

• Key criteria to consider when choosing a preschool
• Strategies for paying for preschool (financial aid, tax benefits)
• How to help prepare your child for the first day of preschool

Autorenporträt

Jenifer Wana conceived the idea for How to Choose the Best Preschool for Your Child after going through the process of researching and applying to preschools for her son and while doing a pro bono consulting project for GreatSchools, a nonprofit education organization that helps parents find and evaluate preschools and K-12 schools.
