Could you qualify to get Savannah in Head Start?

Hey y'all,
I am finally settled back down after a fun and full summer and am able
to check my email and get caught up again.
I've switched from a desktop to a laptop and from win xp to win 7 so
i've not been able to read my emails and such for the past 2 months. I
was stressed enough transitioning that I just did a mass delete here. I
hope that I haven['t missed too much.
Savannah and I had a wonderful summer. We spent a week in San Diego
which is an absolutely beautiful place. I'd love to live there. Savannah
started swim lessons this summer and passed level 1. We also took our
first train ride to visit friends in Illinois. We had such a great time
that we ended up extending our trip and stayed just shy of 3 weeks. We
will also be going back for Halloween. It was a much needed trip and
break from reality.
Savannah has started preschool. She loves it. It is great to see her
thriving and getting the social interaction that she has needed.
I am working on attending the Colorado Center for the Blind. I have a
tentative start date of January. I'm currently struggling to find
affordable preschool or daycare with a preschool curriculum for
Savannah. I will be leaving my job behind for the 6 to 9 months that I
will be at the center so I am unable to afford the going rates.
Does anyone know of any scholarships, financial aid, or resources for
paying for a safe and healthy place for Savannah to be while I get the
training that I need?
I've considered trying to start fund raising myself by selling bottled
water or such outside of Walmart and the likes. The average cost of
preschool or daycare in Littleton is $900 a month.
Any help y'all could give me would be so greatly appreciated.
I hope all are well and I can't wait to catch up with people again.
Oh also, if I had your contact information before, can you please send
it to me off list at blahblahblah at iampipi.com I've lost everything in my
computer transition.
Thanks again,
Pipi
