I need your good and happy stories about having a toddler at nursery, please.
My pfb is starting nursery soon. She'll be going 4 days a week, 10-4ish, and she'll be 17 months old. Up until now work situations have meant she's always been with one of us or a grandmother but soon this won't be possible any more.
Am about as confident as can be we've chosen the right nursery - we looked round quite a few, and got a great feeling from this place. (Still dithering a bit though because there was another one we loved just as much, but it would have been a lot further to travel to.)
But I am worried and starting to work myself up into an irrational nervous frothing mess over it. I am trying to prepare myself for settling in, and I know she's going to cry and it's going to be horrible, and I keep reading horror stories of ignored kids left sobbing in corners for hours, kids coming home with awful injuries, etc etc. What if she hates it? What if they lose her at the park or something? What if she won't eat and won't nap ever? What if it only looks nice on the surface but underneath it's run by Cruella de Vil?
So I would really like some happy stories instead, please. If you have DC who are/were in nursery and liked it, please tell me about how they were happy and had fun and were looked after well!
