So we have been having problems with ds' nursery, with him being bit, and with them not changing him out of dirty nappies. We put a rocket up them, and reduced his hours right down (he was going 2.5 days a week, now he goes just 1 day a week) and we thought they'd got the message.
This afternoon, I go to pick him up, and just before we leave, I take him to the potty to discover he's done a poo in his pull-up. He's obviously been dirty for some time because his bottom is very, very sore. Again. I'm really, really pissed off, and talk to the deputy manager (the manager had gone home) about it, explain that he really needs to be changed out of a poo straight away because of his sensitive skin. She nods in all the right places, and I kind of think, y'know, it's Friday evening, I've left dd in the car (asleep) - I just want to get out of there ASAP. So I leave it.
Then I go to get his coat and bag to discover that another child has gone home with his coat! The nursery assistant comes back with the other child's coat, and they're not even remotely similar - ds' coat is a green, waterproof fleece lined jobby (was pretty damned expensive too, actually) and the other kid has a brown fleecy duffle coat. How do you get the 2 mixed up?!
We've lost several items of clothing to nursery over the year and a half he's been there, most notably last winter's coat (was pretty annoyed about that too, at the time) and if his coat is not returned by Monday I will be billing the nursery for it - I can't afford to buy him another winter coat! fI just wonder if the other mum has waltzed off with ds' coat on purpose (I know I'm possibly being slight unreasonable here) - it's her kid who keeps biting ds - but ds' coat was of much better quality than her kid's, and it's a really nice one.
It feels like the last straw - I know it's a stupid thing to get wound up over - but really, how many chances do they get? I want to withdraw him right now, dh is more reluctant, as for him to work from home he really needs ds in nursery on Fridays.
