9 month old non stop crying in home

[thinkingagain]

Hi there, I am minding a 9 month old, when we are outside she is fine as soon as the front door closes thats it, she is screaming, i cannot be outside with her all day as i have my own 2 year old, and parent has not give me permission to use public transport so my daughter cant walk around all day. She is not interested in toys or anything, she isnt eating much as its only her second day away from her mum,

What can I do? What would you do? Thanks

Is she happier if you carry her?

Obviously you can't be outside ALL the time, not fair on you or your daughter. not to mention you are home-based childcare!!!

how long has the child been with you?

Its a classic age for separation anxiety, etc. All very natural but very frustrating for you.
is baby used to being carried around everywhere? could you use a sling when you are around the house for short periods of time.

I would try to be getting permissions to be using public transport - is there a specific reason why the parent hasn't given it?

Are you trying controlled crying techniques with the baby. Whats the parents take on things - ie is this happening at home, is baby used to being outside more. Could you try putting her in her buggy outside for a sleep (in the garden).

think you need to work with the parents here and come up with some methods that allow you time in the house - peacefully.

some children are just 'screamers' and there is nothing for it but to ride it out (earplugs - lol !!!).

am i right in thinking its only the 2nd day? If so this is perfectly normal behaviour imo. Have you had any settling in sessions?

ahhh must have missed the bit where it said it was the second day.

sorry!

well yes, 'friad its gonna be lots of reasurrance, cuddles etc. don't get into the habit of taking baby out to soothe them - you are making a rod for your own back.
just settle baby into your routine and this may take a few weeks possibly, sometimes more sometimes less!

give it some time hun!
