Had portage worker found today and felt she looked down on us.

Had a portage worker round today and this is the second time she has been round. First week asked questions about dd. This week she said she was going to do activities with her but just did a checklist again. I really felt she looked down her nose at me this week. Dd is and awful sleeper it’s 11 most nights before she will go to sleep (she’s nearly 3) we are awaiting an assessment on adhd and asd, hence portages involment. Yet the woman just said she needs to go to bed at 7 no help or tips just she needs to go to bed at 7. If it was as simple as that she would be going at 7. Dd is non verbal and I don’t think she understand loads of things I tell her tbh.

Sorry letting of steam the portage worker made me feel abit useless.

I'm sure that wasn't her intention. IME portage are normally great. Maybe she just isn't sure yet what advice to give so was gathering further info?

Yeah maybe I’m being abit sensitive. Just little things like dd doesn’t go to nursery yet. So it assumed so doesn’t socialise yet we got to at least 4 groups a week. I told her this last time and she asked again this week about nursery and then seemed shocked I take her to playgroups

You are entitled to be sensitive, its your baby. Nothing wrong with playgroup, so don't worry about that!
