Help! My son is three and has been attending a small nursery school since September. I had worries about how he would settle because he's always found it quite difficult to separate from me - but he's done really well, a few tears on my leaving and that's it.
My problem is that each time I pick him up, even if there are no problems reported to me, there is never anything positive said at all! Not even, he's had a nice morning, or he's enjoyed this or that - nothing. My mum picked him up yesterday and they asked could we leave him for lunch now, to help socialise him, as he still tends to play alongside others rather than with -and "he won't join in with drawing or painting" (which he HAS, on many occasions there)my mum said she felt defensive and started to justify him saying he does at home! She told me she felt an air of disapproval of him, but it's nothing you can put your finger on. I just feel they don't seem to value him at all.
They always report problems (which are not bad - he never hits, or fights - he's very gentle. However he can be bossy and I know they have to make him realise he's not in charge!)but as I say I have never heard anything positive about him from them.
I am very wary of moving him as he's still quite new - does anyone have any ideas??? I am about to ask for a meeting for feedback on how he's settling by the way.
Do your nurseries give more information? Parents evenings? anything like that? Thanks!
