He started the nurse a year and half ago when he was 12 months.

He does not like to go to nursery and crying hysterically every morning and attaching to me and screams and if I manage to put him in his cloths,he takes out his cloths , nappy , ...

I am always late at work , 10:30 to 11 am. Unfortunately this nursery is our only option and we are in waiting lists for otheres. It looks like a good nursery, the only thing it is in basement and no garden .They are taking them out every day but he is not tired in the evening even he doesn't sleep more than 2 hours there(I doubt he sleeps at all because he wakes up late) and comes back very hungry. He plays till 9,10 PM and sleeps around 10:30.He is 3 days in the nursery.
The other days he is happy baby.

You say your son is happy with you the other days yet screaming when he has to go to nursery. He is clearly communicating through his behaviour that something at the nursery does not feel right/upsets him.

My son did exactly the same when he attended two days a week. He would start crying holding onto me as soon as we got to the car park.

I never got to the bottom of why however knew something was not right. I removed him immediately, best decision I ever made, very happy little boy since leaving. Please look at alternative childcare.

How is your Ds after you leave ? My Ds cried every day till he started school . He hated me leaving but was happy there . I know he settled often before I was out the door.

Is a childminder an option . That may work better

Have you looked at childminders? They work to the same standards and are inspected by the same inspectors but offer a smaller homely environment that may suit him better.

Does he settle after you leave? My little one is having a bit of clingy phase just now when I drop him off, the nursery workers asked me to wait outside and look through the window and within 2 minutes he had stopped crying and was playing with toys. You could ask to wait and see how he is?
