Mary Kays Child Care

The possibility to play and learn with other kids is something both home daycares and centers offer that nanny care can't. But unlike centers, which tend to group children by age, home daycares usually have mixed-age groups, which more closely mirrors most families and may aid your child learn to feel comfortable around older children. I like the fact that there are other kids my son can play with and learn from, says Cindy Goral, a BabyCenter user from Palo Alto, California. Since he's an only child, he really enjoys this social interaction.
