I am posting this again as I am now agonising over this issue.
DS is going to nursery since he was 1 year old, he is now nearly 2. We moved to a different area nearly 4 months ago and he has never really completely settled in the new nursery. He is mostly happy during the day but cries every day and is apparently sad for about 1 or 2 hours after we leave. After that he has a good day and enjoyes the garden. It can be that the room he is in is not appropriate for him, there are quite a few smaller babies ....but the staff seem a lot less engaged. If I compare it with the older nursery the atmosphere is not quite as happy there.
I think I have found a really good alternative although I am now worried sick about inflicting another big change on the little one, we have moved house and nursery, we are away from all of his old friends, we will soon move house again (we initially rented here) . Shall I change again ? Or shall I wait and see if things get better? He used to love his old nursery and used to start smiling when we were approaching it.
Please help, thanks
