Bringing children on the
long-term stay is in no way a problem, especially in a city like
Santiago. There are schools, day care centers and preschools
specifically designed for expatriate children. In addition, check out
this section for a listing of language institutes and university
programs.
Preschool and day care are not just ways to get the kids off
your hands while you are at work. English-language preschools are an
opportunity to make sure your youngest children continue to develop
their English speaking skills. They are places where your children
can make friends in an environment that stimulates their creativity.
Preschool and daycares in Chile have a very positive reputation for being trustworthy and having caring teachers and happy students. If you are looking to place your child in a regular preschool in Chile ask around for a Jardin Infantil, (pronounced Har-deen In-fan-teel). Check out www.jardinesinfantiles.cl
