3-year-old changing nurseries and making friends

Hello, I had to move my 3-year-old DD to a new nursery for various reasons.
She has been coping well, we are on the second week but the new nursery is much smaller and she struggles a bit with the other girls of her age not playing with her.
She loves other children and would always play with the same 2-3 friends in the old school so the size of the class is not a problem I think.
I guess I just need to give it some time but my heart is breaking when I see her out of place in the morning.

Two weeks isn't that long, I'm sure she will integrate fine after a while. Young children don't always have the emotional intelligence to think about how to include the 'new girl' in their play in order to be nice and welcoming. It's more a case of waiting till she becomes familiar and there so regularly that she is just integrated naturally. What do the staff say about it?
