my cm seems to have fixed opinions on what my dd 'should' be able to do for herself. e.g self feed with spoon at 11 months. my concern isn't that dd can't do this yet (all babies are different etc)but that the cm has such fixed views and that she expects dd to feed herself and it'll be an issue when she doesn't I didn't get the impression that there is much flexibility in her routine or her attitudes to the children (a 'no shouting' rule i can understand but surely 11 months is too young to comply?. She seems big on rules and short on cuddles and warmth. Please be honest - am i being over sensitive in worrying that she's too cold towards the children or should alarm bells be ringing? I know I can't expect her to show the same warmth as a parent and i know it's her job so things are bound to be matter of fact and she needs a routine that works for everyone... but...i'm worried i've made a mistake...
