Smyrna Area PMO & Preschools

 

It hardly seems possible, but if you have children from baby to preschool age, it’s time to decide if you’ll be enrolling them in a formal program this fall. PMOs and preschools. Church-based or secular. Traditional or alternative learning. The choices can be pretty overwhelming considering we’re still talking about children of an age where watching ants marching is their higher education. To help you out, we’ve started a list of the PMO and preschools in our area, divided by church-based and secular schools, and then by location. This will be a growing and evolving list which will soon live in our “Resources” section for easy, year-round reference. If we’ve missed your favorite school, please email [email protected].

A New Orleans girl turned Georgia peach and stay at home mom to 2 daughters. Before taking the leap into full time mothering, I worked at at an Atlanta-based advertising agency. I have lived in Smyrna for almost 10 years and am still not sure how I managed to find a job more chaotic and unpredictable than advertising.
