Can anyone give me any recommendations of daycare/preschool facilities in my area for a 3 year old? Also tuition or cost information would be incredibly helpful too.
So I set up a tour with Chesterbrook because I literally live right behind it. Sharon G., do you mind telling me how much you pay in tuition?
Chesterbrook Academy on Ogden in Lisle is a daycare/preschool. My daughter is in the kindergarten program there and we have loved it! If you are willing to go to Downers, Immanuel Lutheran Preschool was really good. Pricing depends on how many days a week you choose to send your child. http://www.lutheransonline.com/servlet/lo_ProcServ/dbpage...
We love Bright Horizons in Wheaton. They offer full-time or part-time care and have a great program and staff!
My son attends Montessori School of Lisle in Naperville...on Hobson. We love it. They have daycare hours - it's great to be paying the same as daycare and have the advantage of the Montessori teachings.

My daughter attended daycare and Kindergarten at one of the Kensington schools. I believe they have a couple out in your area - they are all owned/operated by the same person. She still attends before/after school care and summer camp there as well and we have been very happy. We loved the kindergarten - just wish they had a full elementary school!

My two and 1/2 year old goes to home daycare in Wheaton and before we moved here (from Geneva) she went to Kensington in St. Charles. Home daycare is great (found our sitter on care.com) if you find the right one (if that is something you are looking for). We switched to home day care when I could not find anything I liked in this area.
As for Kensington, they just opened a location on Naperville road in Wheaton (between Roosevelt and Butterfield). Had they been opened when we moved almost 2 years ago, she would have been there..
