She has being doing a couple of sessions a week since her 2nd birthday. She settled in amazingly quickly, and after 2-3 weeks she loved it and couldn't wait to go.
Now since going back after Christmas she doesn't seem happy anymore. Last week for the first time since starting she clung to me and was crying when I tried to leave, and this morning was awful. She kept saying over and over " I don't like nursery" and was v.upset and clingy.
The staff are wonderful, and they agree that she isn't herself anymore and that she is needing a lot of adult support during the sessions now, getting teary for no apparent reason etc... Dd used to rabbit on about a few friends who are upstairs in the pre-school room, but sometimes come for some of their sessions downstairs. Apparently she hasn't even been playing with them.
Does anyone else have experience of this sort of change? I am hoping it is just a phase but it's horrible to think she is unhappy there .
