So.. my 9 months old daughter is due to start nursery in just over a week. A nursery which I have loved from the start of looking round them all and have been highly recommended it, won best nursery in our city, outstanding offstead etc etc.
Visit number 1 was just a 45 mins, meet her key worker, talk through things while she played etc and was all fine!
Visit number 2 was only 1 hour long, left her no problem said bye she seemed fine and left. Came back an hour later and I could see her through the door sat on her key workers knee not crying but a bit wingey, however she then seen me and her dad and had a terrible break down! Now I just put this down to being over whelmed with everything then not expecting us to be there, getting a shock etc. Key worker assured me the visit had been fine until last 5 mins or so and she was getting a bit tired!
Visit number 3 today was a disaster! 2 hours long, left her ok again however on our return I could hear her crying! :( it was awful! One of the girls said she's just upstairs she's been a bit upset ... went up she was sat on another girls knee (all the staff seem lovely btw!) but this time she was crying! ... they said she had been on and off crying basically the whole time, wouldn't eat much at snack time, however was trying to play while crying! They thought it could be teeth as she was biting all the toys however I'm not convinced and I just think she really doesn't like it! ....next session is going to be 4 hours long ... so sorry for the long essay but if anyone has any advise or similar stories please help!
Also normally she is very very friendly, happy, sociable etc! We go to tonnes of baby groups and always socialise with other babies and mums however I only ever really leave her with my sister or her dad.
Thanks in advance!!
