3yrs old - playgroups

[Dee1985]

Hello

Dior will be 3 this week and i have been told that i will soon start to get childcare vouchers for her and i can send her to pre-school playgroups.

Dior already goes to a private nursery 2 days a week 8am-6pm while i work but i have been told i can use vouchers for that? or can they only be used in Playgroups or pre-schools?

and are Playgroups or pre-schools something that children HAVE to go to?

what i would like to do is still send her to private nursery 2 days a week and the other 3 days she does her mornings or afternoons at preschool?

any help would be great - its all mind boogeling!!!!

Children don't Have to go to pre school/ playgroup
and yes you should be able to use your childcare vouchers for Private nursery

Emily never went to Private nursery but did go to playgroup/pre school
when she turned 3 1/2 she gor a place at the school nursery in Afternoons
so she used to still go to playgropu 2 mornings then nursery in the afternoon

Dior will soon be at the age for school nursery, has she got a place yet?
