So I have a beautiful and very sensitive 3 year which has felt the effects of separation from me post break up with her father. This has meant she spends 50/50 time with me and her father which seems a fair split but the LO had never fully bonded with dad and I feel she hasn’t coped well.

Each time I drop her off at his or school or anywhere she’s distraught.
I’ve tried calm reassurance, books like “the invisible string” but nothing seems to be reducing the level of anxiety she feels.
She clearly settles after a while so should I just keep doing what I’m doing?
Any tips?
Would be much appreciated

Bumping for you. Do you mean a 3 year old?
