Fucking hell.
I'll be paying less than £500 a month to put minibadger into one of the best private nurseries in Edinburgh for 3 days a week.

I take it that's a childminder? why not use a nursery?

She's 19 months. The decent nurseries around here won't take kids under 2.
She's starting at one in September; £2.5k a term.

Sorry, what the actual fuck?
Nurseries start from about 4 months old in normal civilised society.

I have plenty of friends with kids in London
if anything, London nurseries take kids earlier, what with it being a fuck sight harder to survive on one salary in london.

a place that won't take kids til they are 2 isn't a nursery, it's a preschool.

Montessori doesn't. Well, the ones around us don't.
Plus I wouldn't want micro in nursery too young. She does lots of other activities though; song classes, swimming lessons etc. Starting Spanish classes soon.

Right..... Montessori are schools though.
I totally appreciate that your child's upbringing is a personal choice, personally I just don't understand why you don't want her mixing with other children too young but paying more money to spend time with a strange adult is OK.

sorry, just to be clear
going totally against the tradition of b3ta here, I'm not saying I think you're wrong. I'm not sure there is a "wrong" about this. Just my thoughts.
