Just need a hand hold as I know we have made the right decision but it's no fun right now..
LO is 2 and has been with us since 6mo. She was categorically not ready to be left alone at nursery or playgroup until a few months ago. This week we have started nursery, 2 hours a morning, 2 mornings a week. It's small, lovely, and the staff there knew me when I was a little girl, I trust them implicitly!
Tues was her first day and she obviously didn't really figure out what was going on, toddled off to play and then we DP returned to pick her up was playing happily - until she spotted DP and put on a bit of a cry-fest. Was eating her lunch ten mins later none the worse for wear.
Today was day 2 - this time she saw it coming and was really clingy and weepy. I am at work but poor DP is sat in the car howling. She's feeling terrible but knows it's the right decision. DD loves other kids and actively ignores us at soft play so she can chase them around. She'll love a sandpit and a library and a book corner. But god why is it so heart-wrenching dropping her off!?
Help! Tell me stories of your DC and how they got over this bit and love nursery!
