Morning,
Just wondering how you sell yourself when up against a preschool.
A friend of mine currently has her son in a Pre school and is increasing his hours from January once he receives his funding. However, due to one thing and another its looking like there will be 6 hours she can't use there.
We were talking through options and I said that I can offer the funding and what about using it with me/ a cm which she was really keen on initially.
But, this morning I have had a text to say they have slept on it and really want him to go to a preschool...
I realise they have to do what is best for them but am feeling a little bit 'meh' as I the way I look at it is, other than the social side of it, I offer all the same things (and more probably with trips etc) as a preschool just on a smaller scale.
So for the future, how do you sell yourself and make it attractive to parents of preschool age children?
