Hi all, looking for some advice for my 11mo.
He will be starting nursery in January and will be attending one full day a week.
The routine that nursery have is so, so different to the routine we have at home. My question is, do I start to get him into the nursery routine now in preparation? Or allow him to have a different routine on that one day a week?
He will also only be having one nap a day at nursery and at home, he currently has two. I'm a bit worried about him dropping to 1 nap so early on as everywhere you read, it suggests that babies should transition to 1 nap a lot later than 11 months.
He's never been the best sleeper and still doesn't sleep through the night, I'm just worried about the routine and changes possibly impacting his nighttime sleep even more. He's kind of developed his own routine himself over the last few weeks...
Current home routine is roughly:
7-7.30am - wake up
8am - bottle
9am - breakfast
10am - nap for around 1 hour 15 minutes
12-12.30pm - lunch
2pm - small bottle of milk
2.15pm - nap for roughly around 1 hour 15 minutes. Usually up no later than 3.45pm
5pm - dinner
7pm - bottle
In bed for around 7.30pm
Nursery routine:
Breakfast between 8-9.30am
Playtime
11.30am - lunch
12pm - 2pm - nap time
2pm - snack/milk if needed
3.30pm - tea time
5pm - snack (if not already collected)
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!
