No idea mam. I am also planning to leave the job and to be home full time with my kid because i think a mother can give the right parwarish to kid. My kid got the admission in St. Francies indirapuram but we are rejected in so many school after i am working. So i don't think working or home maker mothers are the selection creitaria
hi, i am also a working women but have my own business, still get very less time for my child, this is actually a very personnel decision and everyone has to set their priorities but i think this is not at all related with the nursery admission process as all the teachers & principals they are also working for a school, how can they prefer a hose wife. if you feel to leave the job for your kid & if it is required for any reason that is wonderful.
i thk today admission is purely luck .................some schools ask who will take care of kid in ur absence ..........if kid is ntw ell who will take leave ............ifs chools calls parent then how u will manage to come..........there r hundreds of questions they can ask if there will be parent interaction............but in our system still itsnt decided what will happen with the kids regarding admissions..............
Completely understand your delimma of being working mothers and having kids who are starting school, my point is why do you think from a school perspective as to what would they prefer, think from a point who will make your children study and look after them in your absence. Creating a stronger support system is far more better than to give up your successful career and repent later. Because after a certain time period when Kids get settled say after 4-5 years, you will end up being frustrated. So my advise is dont think what would school prefer, think what support system you can create for your child and your manage your time to be with them. I too have 2 kids and managing a job that is 40 Kms away from my home and managing both. the results are ok if not too great. Hope this helps
Fully support Preeti comments..

I am also a working mother leaving daily my home at 7 am in morning...my daughter is in play school as of now so not worried much..but yes when she started normal school then I have to think how to make work life balance...leaving a job and then after 4-5 year starting at the same level where you are right now is difficult. I hve to start agin from scratch so dnt think that leaving jb is right way to handle this situation... i have to manage both together
hi monika who takes care of ur daughter once u leave home as she mst be going to play school at around 9 or 10
with me prob is where to leave her till 9:30 as she is in play school ............
I know this is big prblm...anyways my in laws take care of her
hi all. i completely agreee with monika nad preeti. today we women are strong and smart enough to make a balance between our career and home. infact i feel my son has become more mature nad independent by accepting the fact that his mom needs to go for work . i agree its nt easy to manage but its possible. wen our kids will gow up then they will be proud of their mother . blv me
Dear Monika Anand, I would suggest you not to resign from your present designation. Just wait for the guidelines from Ministry and take decision accordingly. Because, if point system is restored (with some modifications), then there may be a possibility of getting points to a working woman. A few schools have given points under this category in the past also. Therefore, please wait for some more days. Don't worry about look after of your child. Every problem has a solution. Right now the problem is of securing a seat. Resignation may become a hindrance in your kid's future. Theefore, keep working.
@ Sonya & all Moms/Members

My 2 cents

1. Schools look for educated/confident Mothers but few schools prefer proffessionals.
2. Schools look for Mothers who can basically help the child to do their Home Work and
give quality time not QUANTITY TIME
3. I agree with Mr. Maharam don't leave your job at this crucial moment

best regards
I have given interviews in two schools and either of the school was interested to know about how much time i spend with kid and not in how much quality time i spend with her. no other question was asked.

my kid was not selected in either of the schools.

any comments for this?
This is not the only criteria ,pls tell what were the other parameters this generally happens in ncr schools where you dont know why were you rejected. (reasons could be like profile,financial staus,education)etc anything
