We have two options locally for holiday childcare
Holiday club at nursery daughter used to attend £36 a day or a sports based leisure facility at local leisure centre £21 a day. Each holiday I give my daughter a choice in advance but I have to book for whole holidays. She chose leisure centre for these holidays.
I had the first week off & I also have the last week off. So it's four weeks in between 3 days a week childcare. I WFH Mon & Fri & usually one of the three days she at club but I need to concentrate / have calls!
Daughter thoroughly enjoyed first week at holiday club at leisure centre. This week then Tuesday we had lots of tears going but was fine when husband picked up had a great day! Wed & Thurs she was fine maybe a few extra cuddles going in but overall no problems. Talking about her friends she made & what they did!
Now tonight tears again saying her friends she made are mean to her & why does she have to go. I explain because mummy has to work.
She asking to go back to nursery holiday club which just isn't possible now for me to cancel one & book other. I've not experienced this before - eldest daughter I could drop anywhere & she got on with it!
How can I console her / persuade it be ok?!
