Deciding when to enroll your child in daycare is a big decision for every parent. At Zion DayCare Centre, we understand that every child is unique, and knowing when they’re ready can feel daunting. To help you make this decision, here are five signs your child might be ready for daycare:

• They show interest in socializing: If your child is eager to play with other kids or enjoys interacting with new people, it could be a sign that they’re ready for daycare. At Zion DayCare Centre, we foster a community where children can develop friendships and learn the importance of teamwork.
• They express a desire for independence: When children begin to show signs of independence, such as wanting to feed themselves or dress themselves, it’s a good indication that they’re ready to take the next step. Daycare provides a structured environment that supports their growing sense of autonomy.
• They handle short separations well: If your child can handle short periods away from you without getting overly distressed, they might be ready for daycare. At Zion DayCare Centre, we help ease any lingering separation anxiety by providing a warm and welcoming environment where children feel safe and supported.
• They’re curious and eager to learn: If your child loves exploring new toys, books, or activities, it’s a great sign that they’re ready for the enriched environment that daycare provides. Our curriculum at Zion DayCare Centre is designed to challenge and engage young minds while encouraging a love of learning.
• They thrive on routine: Daycare offers a structured schedule, which is great for children who benefit from routine. If your child enjoys knowing what’s coming next, they will likely adapt well to the daily routine at Zion DayCare Centre, which includes a balance of playtime, learning, meals, and rest.
