Our local Kindy says the average starting age is 3yrs 3 mths, so they must have a longer waiting list than some of the others. Daycare is if you want them in all day, kindy is just for about 3 hours (3 days for 3 year olds and 5 days for 4 year olds), so no good if you're working.]]> Tue, 23 Dec 2008 12:36:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23269&PID=572669&title=daycare-or-kindy#572669 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23269&PID=572160&title=daycare-or-kindy#572160 Author: Rachael21

I think it depends on the kindy what age they take them. Have a look around as different daycares and kindies vary a lot. Just remember with kindy its a lot cheaper because of volunteering so expect to help out a bit. ]]> Mon, 22 Dec 2008 16:09:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23269&PID=572160&title=daycare-or-kindy#572160 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23269&PID=571970&title=daycare-or-kindy#571970 Author: LovelyMummy

I don't know about kindy programs vs daycare programs but I do know that although kindy is aimed at 3&4yos some will take children younger.  Michaela will still be 2 (just) when she starts kindy in January and Kazzle's daughter Rhiannon was about 2 1/2 when she started kindy.  Often it depends on their waiting list but also it depends on your child too and whether they are ready for kindy earlier.]]> Mon, 22 Dec 2008 08:19:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23269&PID=571842&title=daycare-or-kindy#571842 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23269&PID=571727&title=daycare-or-kindy#571727 Author: LovelyMummy

Is Kindy more closer for when they start school?
And daycare are the hours you want right?

I have heard some kindys take kids at the young age of 2??? ]]> Sun, 21 Dec 2008 19:45:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=23269&PID=571727&title=daycare-or-kindy#571727
