Hi everyone!
I am totally new to mumsnet so please excuse me for any faux pas!
I have been considering nursery 2 afternoons per week for my DD and am really really tore up over it...
Bit of background; DD is 17 months old, very very sociable, spends 3 days per week with her grandmothers whilst I am at work, however, she seems to get really really bored and then the tantrums follow...! I adore my daughter and love spending my days off with her but also I feel that she isn’t getting enough of what she needs in terms of socialising etc, I have to do boring stuff like shopping/housework/generally keeping us all alive on my 2 days off as all of you ladies will know! I do try and do something fun with her when I am off, painting, going to the park, walking the dog and we do spend lots of time outdoors of a weekend when my husband and I are off work but I just feel she may need that little bit more stimulation.
She loves other kids and will literally walk up to strange kids and chatter away to them and thinks they’re friends for life! I am really really split over it and on the one hand think she will absolutely love it and will thrive but the other part of me is ripped to shreds worrying she is too young and what if she thinks I’ve abandoned her and all of that stuff?
Meh sorry if that is a ramble! I’m new to all of this!
Basically I just wondered what you ladies think? The afternoons in nursery are purely to give her some social time with other kids and getting to do the fun stuff I don’t always get time to do with her when I’m off work.
Thanks
Sam xx
