From the optimal timing for contemplation to the diverse educational approaches available, Isabel guides us through the process, even shedding light on how to immerse ourselves in the atmosphere of prospective schools.

Get ready to embark on this enlightening journey, where each choice shapes the kaleidoscope of our children's futures.
