I'm enrolling my first two clients, and one of the moms specifically asked me if I prefer to be MissFirstname or Mrs.Lastname.

First, I thought it thoughtful of her to ask me what I prefer.

Second, I am specializing in preschool care and providing structured preschool activities. So, I was thinking of going with Mrs.Lastname, as that's what children will be calling their Kindergarten teachers anyway. But then, I understand that this is a smaller, homey atmosphere, so MissFirstname could also make sense.

Third, I over-think EVERYTHING!

Any advice? Any reason why one is better than the other?

FWIW, I told the mom I'd prefer Mrs.Lastname and gave her the above reason, but I could always change that.
