My DD has just turned three. She has been at nursery for a year now (four days a week) and has previously been fine at drop off - she has never really cried or shown any signs of anxiety when I drop her off and normally joins in with whatever activity is going on quite happily. In the last week or so though, she has clung on to me really tight as we enter the setting, and then absolutely refused to let go of me, has screamed and screamed, and I've had to leave her while she is still crying. The nursery say that within a couple of minutes she is absolutely fine and plays happily all day. Has anyone had any experience of a sudden change like this? Nothing has changed in her daily routine, there have been no 'life' changes and the nursery say that they have not noticed any change in her behaviour other than this... it's making me so miserable because I feel awful leaving her in that state!
