DD had her settling in week at nursery this week. For a number of reasons I found it pretty emotional, so I am prepared to be told IABU (just be gentle!). DD seems to be enjoying nursery so far, bit upset when I leave but seems playing contently when I spy on her just before collecting.

On third day I went to collect and her nappy was totally full (wet), really heavy and hanging down. I asked if she'd had it changed and there was no record of it, they changed it before we left.

Then on fourth day when I collected her, her nappy was leaking through her leggings (wet) and again really heavy and hanging down. They'd also not done her a daily sheet of what she'd eaten/drunk, though one of the workers could tell me (but no record)

I'm not usually one to be bothered about little details, but I kind of thought they'd be paying more attention to her during her first few days. WIBU to raise it with them when she's next in?

I agree ForFuck, unless a child has allergies, or illness or eating issues, than food charts are pointless, I would rather my child be cared for. So Allyg if a child needs changing between that time, are they changed?

Terrible! They need to keep a log. Get her out of there

I think the no record thing isn't a big deal as not all nurseries give you a paper record. Often it's just verbal. Ours didn't. Frankly, I'd rather them spend their time with the children than filling out forms. So that's fine for me.

But the nappy thing, yes, it's a bit of a big deal. They do change nappies at set times usually, but they should always be attuned to if a nappy needs changing between those times and do it. On occasion it does happen they miss one, but it shouldn't be every day and there is no excuse for leaking and them not even noticing the leak. I would definitely raise the concern with them and take note if it happens again next week. Then definitely a red flag.
