Question for CM's - where do your mindee's sleep?

Just wondered what arrangements you have for babies sleeping?
My 8 month DD is due to start with a CM in Sept, would sleeping in a pushchair be acceptable? I have a bit of an issue with this - am I being unreasonable?
Any advice /experience greatly appreciated.

no i don't stay in in the mornings. we are all out and about. they all sleep in the afternoons or if they are younger and need more sleeps they sleep on the move.

I do a school run in the afternoon ... children sleep on the move again!

I actually asked a couple of my mums how they really felt about buggy/car-seat sleeping if (or, rather, when) we are out and, thankfully, they were absolutely fine about it and reminded me that I had actually told them all this stuff when they first visited!

i do school runs in the afternoon so its a case of get sleep in straight after 12pm lunch. it works quite well and most parents don;t really want little darlings sleeping much after 3pm anyway.

plus, when i only have little ones i get half hour to sit and drink tea, have even been known to get an episode of neighbours in!!
