You're welcome - so happy to help! Yeah, Heritage is 10 minutes exactly, and of course, Sagemont is in the center of Weston.

Okay - so after speaking on the phone with some of the preschools, I have a very good feeling about St.Paul Child Enrichment Center. That woman spent so much time on the phone with me, more then anyone else, she was soo sweet and detailed and the prices are very reasonable. They also have 2 spots left at the moment. I also spoke on the phone with Sagemont (way out of our price range, $1000/month without VPK); and Weston Christian Academy (sweet woman).
I'm of course very worried to enroll my child before I actually see the school, although a friend of mine already checked it out and she really liked it. On the other hand, I'm afraid that I don't move quickly, all the good schools will be taken!
My husband doesn't want to travel to Weston until rental apartments are available, he doesn't want to make an extra trip.
What would you guys suggest? We can put in deposit for St.Paul and have a place for my son there, and in the worst case scenario, we will lose $900 if we decide not to place Max there.

Also - if we will be renting in St.Andrews, how far is 580 Indian Trace? Anyway, is there a website where I can check out car time travel?

I can't help you with St Paul's, because they're probably after my time - hopefully somene else will wander in and know.

For car distance try maqquest.com. Put in your address, the school's address and distance and time should come right up. St Andrew's is very central so anything in Weston shouldn't be anymore than 5 minutes.

Okay, let me know!!!
We decided to hold off putting deposit in for St.Paul. I really would rather see the schools, I'm not comfortable putting $900 in for the school I haven't seen. I feel like the right school and opportunity will be there if it's meant to be. My husband will be in WEston in August and he will look at various schools.
We also will check out Children's Carousel, Creative Child Learning Center, VIP kids and Adventure Bay.

I do believe the Creative Child Learning Centers were first started by one of the co-founders of Sagemont, Renee Goldman (she opened Sagemont with her son, Brent). I think they were sold when Sagemont opened, however I would think the basic philosophy would be comparable and worth the look.

I don't know if you noticed this because it said it was new, but just in case, check this out:

The VPK program is now free! (As it should be...)

I love that you can keep an eye on classroom activities during the day via webcam - I bet that's not possible in the public school!

UUUUuuuu, this is some good stuff. Thanks!
By the way, it's only 1 MINUTE driving distance from St.Andrews. Could it be any closer?
