Lin Yilong has no experience in taking care of children, but in some respects he is particularly afraid of taking care of his daughters. Although he was often encouraged by the Iaon sisters and liked by his own daughters, he handed over the responsibility to their mother after two days of care. Naturally, it was impossible for the Yeon sisters to take care of their children during their daily work, and Tanya and Natasha were also taken to Westerbon, a private nursery that was open to the public.

"Why go there?" asked Vera when Lin Yilong made the decision, preferring to let her mother take care of it.

"Because this is our daughter, not your mother's, or my mother's daughter. Lin Yilong replied, "It's a helpless move to help take care of it, and besides, the thinking parents of the Yeang family and the Lin family have their own lives. As children, don't let these elders continue to work. Do you feel that way?"

Back in South Wales, Lin Yilong will let Nadia and Vera commute to work normally without paying special attention to their daughters. The Yeon sisters gave him this task, and just when the two of them thought that Lin Yilong would hire a full set of nannies, babysitters and early education teachers, Lin Yilong made his decision.

"We live too far from the city, and our daughters need to be in contact with other girls, at least not so lonely. Lin Yilong further explained the basis for his choice, "I have also considered the Welsh University College Nursery School in Nadia and the Welsh University Hospital Nursery School where Vera works, but I think that if Tanya and Natasha are not able to enter the primary school in Mastach Town in the future, they must still study in a better primary school, so it is better to go directly from the nursery to the kindergarten and directly to the primary school, so as to avoid the children's discomfort." ”

This nursery is not an independent nursery of its own, but a kindergarten-nursery school attached to an elementary school. It was also established to make it easier for employees and students to work and study in the vicinity, and also to cultivate a special interest in entering the school.

The nature of the nurseries offered by many of the major companies in the San Francisco Bay Area in South Wales and on the other side of the pond is completely different, and the original intention of the high-tech companies on the pond side is actually very similar to the new era of corporate kindergartens built by the motherland, rather than a fully socially operated nursery like Glamorgan County. The nursery provided by Nadia and Vera's workplace does not discount Tanya and Natasha's childcare fees because of their careers, which also cuts off Lin Yilong's idea of letting his two daughters develop an interest in a specific profession in a hospital or school nursery.

Since it costs money to the left and right, it is better to go to the nursery outside. The affordable nursery is about £35 a day, but the quality is not as good as that of the university and hospital nurseries, so Lin Yilong chose Westerborn.

"Because you can pick up the kids at six o'clock at the latest, you have plenty of time to decide who is going to pick up the kids. Lin Yilong mentioned another point, "Sometimes it's actually very good to cultivate a little interest." ”

"What about tuition?"

"It's about £1,200 a month. Lin Yilong took out his mobile phone and passed the downloaded PDF to Sister Yeang, "This is the price of lunch calculated separately, so it seems that the price is very good." ”

Nadia's eyebrows twisted slightly. The price of the nursery is already exaggerated, with a three-term school year and an additional lunch, which costs around £1,500 per child per month alone. This cost is already more than half of her doctor's funding, and if she starts working according to her ideals step by step, she can only afford to support her Tanica, and she will not be able to use other money for some normal level of consumption.

"At this price, you can stop a lot of children in Boot City or in Eli (both of which are districts of Cardiff and are mostly inhabited by town workers). Lin Yilong does not hide his prejudices, "Such a high cost of childcare, dual-income families can only afford it, far less convenient than one party quitting his job to take care of the child, plus the difference in wages between male and female workers, which is why there are many stay-at-home mothers in Cardiff city center." ”

At this time, Sister Yeang looked at Lin Yilong with a strange look.

"I'm not accusing you, absolutely not. Lin Yilong discovered the abnormality of the two Yeang sisters, and hurriedly redeemed his gaffe, "It's better to take the children there tomorrow to see if they are willing to stay there." ”

"It's fine. Nadia nodded before Vera, "But how did you know about this school?"

"I happen to know an education consultant. Lin Yilong took out a business card from the wallet he put on the coffee table, "I consulted him about the infant and toddler education in Wales, and then he strongly recommended me to let me choose a better private primary school with a nursery, instead of recommending to start looking for nannies and preschool teachers one-on-one from a young age, so I chose the best one, it's as simple as that." ”

"So, you haven't inspected it either?"

"I just went there last night and had a good look. Lin Yilong replied with some humility, "I also found an independent agency for paid consultation, and they gave this school an excellent rating, so I have this initial impression of coming here." ”

The next day, Nadia and Vera, who were very worried, drove with their respective daughters to Westerbon, which Lin Yilong had temporarily decided.

Despite its prestige, the location of this private educational institution is a bit less than ideal – it is right on the way from Cardiff to Bonas in South Glamorgan, and it is somewhat inconvenient for the Yeon sisters to pick up and drop off their children.

The mothers of the children carefully inspected the facilities of the nursery and communicated with the childcare staff with a somewhat unfamiliar Russian accent. An additional £100 was spent for the daughters to try to 'settle' here, and then went to a monitoring room away from the daughters to watch how well the children adjusted.

Tannika and Natasha were happy to be here, and when they saw their respective mothers a few hours later, they were smiling—though it made the sisters a little sad.

"We have a monitoring system that is open to the public, and parents of children can directly see the real-time footage here through specific software access to the background. Ms. Jurkin, the manager of the nursery, explained to the Yeon sisters that the nursery system was "safe and secure. Our babysitters are qualified paediatric nurses to ensure the well-being of the children. On top of that, if the children reach the age of three, they can add a little tutorial class arranged by the lower primary school teachers, such as instrumental music or painting, or you can try ballet. ”

The Yeon sisters, who didn't find anything wrong, also thought it was good and chose this place directly.
