Choices..

I am faced with a choice and I might be making to much of it, but it concerns my son so I want to make the best, and right choice for him. Ron and I made a desicion to put Anderson into daycare because of some things that happened with his family. I know that this choice was the right one because of how things worked out, I know that God had his hand on it. We put him into a good daycare that I have heard a lot about and the teacher that he has is a really good match for us. She is understanding, talks about feelings, and lets him be a boy.
Before we put him into First Baptist Church Daytime School, I filled out a pre-registration form to put him into Liberty Acadamy. This is a private school that takes pre-schoolers (3 years old)all the way up through graduation. Ron and I talked about putting him into Liberty for the pre-K program and possibling letting him stay there through kindergarden. The reason for that is, you can pay a little extra onto the tuition and they keep them there for afterschool care until 5:30. (We get off at 5 so that works great, and I don't have to worry about who is driving a van or bus to take him from preK to daycare.) Liberty only takes open enrollment 2 times a year, May for the summer program and August for the school program.

Originally we were going to leave Anderson with his Nanny and Papa until August and put him into Liberty for the school program. However, Nanny had some health issues come up which has lead us to making our decision to putting him into daycare immediately.

I got a phone call on Monday from Liberty to come and take a tour of the school and meet his teacher. I went ahead and made our appointment for Friday and they asked that we bring Anderson of course. I know that this might not sound like a big deal but he has been in his Nanny and Papa's care for almost 2 years and this is a BIG transition for us. I am making a pro and con list for both places and would love feed back from whoever!!!
*Like I said our apt is Friday, so I don't know much about Liberty yet, this is just where I sit right now, I will have to update after we take the tour and meet his teacher.

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
+He has been going for about 3 weeks. (on and off, he has been sick and missed some)
+We like his teacher.
+He has started to make friends.
+He is familiar with the routine there.
+They have a security system. (you have to idenitify who you are and who you are picking up before you can even open the door)
+They have been very understanding about having a parannoied mother calling 4x's a day to check on him.
+The allow them to have their own pillow and blanket for nap time.
-They charge weekly. $115 ($460 a month, unless there's an extra week then its $575)
-Only have a preschool program. (after that its public school, although they take them and pick them up)
-After school care is almost as much as full time daycare.

LIBERTY
+They don't leave the facility when he turns 4 for preK
+They charge MONTHLY $285 + $25 for extended care. $310 a month
+EXCELLENT school program where they also teach about the Bible. (this is why I wanted him here originally)
+Can stay here as long as we are willing to pay the tuition.
-No security system



**Like I said I don't know much about Liberty, and right now the biggest thing is that its a lot cheaper per month and he will be there the whole time. Not at school half a day, then have to be taken there. Money isn't everything, I don't mind paying the extra if that is the best place for him to be. However, by the time he would be able to start at Liberty he would have only been at FBC School for about 6 weeks. I just need direction, I have been praying that God will make it easy and show me the way to go. I am excited to let Anderson see the new place, he is a smart kid and I want to make him be part of the decision too.
