CMP and toddler/preschool part of nursery

Early next year dd2 will be moving from the baby room into the 'toddler' section of nursery.

So far, the baby room staff have coped well due to me taking in her food and being able to give dd2 one-to-one (or almost) care at meal times. She has her own highchair although since the others sit around a table they are starting to sit her round that too starting on quiet days.

I am worried about her move into the less well staffed, busier 'toddler' room especially since I realised that they not only have cups of milk at breakfast and tea but also the mid-morning and mid-afternoon fruit snacks.

Is it totally unrealistic to think she will be able to sit with the other toddlers with this much milk around? Does anyone have experience of this.

I am planning to ask for a meeting with the head of the toddler room to discuss this but at the moment I feel pretty negative about this.

They have dealt brilliantly with dd1's egg allergy for the 3 years she has been there but milk is so much harder I think. (dd2 is allergic to both!)

Thanks babybarrister. I do have faith in them I think as they haven't had any incidents with dd1 (nearly 4) and dd2 (who they have had for 8 months.

I'm having arubbish day today. All feels really crap and have boxed myself into corner of feeling I must give up my job (which I absolutely love) and stay at home (we'd be broke)

Think I may take a leaf out of your ds's book and shout 'Allergies are shit'

Babybarrister- what are the things that make it work?

I have a meeting with nursery manager to see what plans we can put in to help keep her safe.

As you can see from my other posts this has been a crappy week and I'm not thinking too straight!

I had a chat today and the head of the room said they would be able to assign someone to sit next to dd2 at all meals and snacks and then read with her until it was tidied away,

Seems a good start but I have a meeting organised with the head and the manager to talk in more detail
