Write down the practical facts first.
Record fees, schedule, travel time, staff continuity, communication, and any firm family requirements. These facts are easier to compare when every school answers the same questions.
During the visit
Watch what actually happens.
Note how adults speak, how materials are used, how movement and group activity are handled, and whether the daily routine matches the school’s description.
After the visit
Compare evidence, cost, and family fit.
