My 5 year old is studying a private preschool now.. While I am generally happy with the school, it is rather small and the school fees keep increasing. Thinking of enrolling my 1.5 year old in another center, mid ranged and Gd reviews. Anyone changed kindergarten for their kid be4? Any implications?

Just to share, my daugther changed 5 preschools since N1 due to relocation. I can say young children adapt new environment, teachers and friends very fast. My daugther has no problem to adapt new schools so far. If your kid feels upset before changing school, you can bring her/him to the new school for a tour and introduce the main teacher to him/her so that to make it more familiarize for him/her. If your kid feels upset after changing school, try to comfort him/her and find out what are the reasons. One of the reasons could be she is missing her old teachers and friends. You can arrange a meet-up with old teachers and friends for her. This works for my daugther too. It will normally take about 1 to 2 months for the kid to settle down in the new school, from my own daugther's experiences.
