The Savvy Source for Parents Announces Record Traffic Levels as Parents Pursue Spring Preschool Applications


    - Applications Must Be Made By March For Fall Of 2008 School Year -

    SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- The Savvy Source for Parents
(http://www.savvysource.com), the premiere online resource for parents with
preschool-age children, had over 135,000 visitors to its web site in
January, as parents turned to the web to find detailed information about
preschools in their community. The Savvy Source preschool guide includes
95% of the nation's preschools (over 55,000 preschools) and there are
thousands of reviews gathered from parents who evaluated the schools based
on their personal experiences. As the March deadline quickly approaches to
submit preschool applications for the Fall 2008 school year, parents have
begun to ramp up their research by turning to Savvy Source's free online
database.

    "Finding the right preschool for a child is an extremely stressful
decision for parents," said Stacey Boyd, CEO and Founder of the Savvy
Source for Parents. "There are hundreds of schools to choose from and
parents have very little time to make one of the most important decisions
in their child's young life. With the Savvy Source, parents can quickly go
online and access free information that comes directly from other parents
who have spent time at the school, interviewed school teachers and
administrators, reviewed records, and, most importantly, spent extensive
time with other moms whose children are in the schools."

    For more information, go to http://www.savvysource.com and click on the
preschool tab to get started.

    The Savvy Source for Parents is an online community founded by parents,
for parents to help parents navigate the incredibly challenging issue of

a combination of Craig's List and Zagats and the goal is to provide parents

preschools, camps, etc. and to help parents make the right choices for
their children at home based on expert advice and counsel.
