My DS started nursery almost a year ago at 11 months old, we've had no issues & he settled in really well until a few weeks ago when he went up to the toddler group. The first week he was fine & went in happily however when I picked him up I noticed he had a soiled nappy, I thought maybe it had happened just before I arrived & the nursery staff didn’t notice but the next time I picked him up his sleeve was soaking wet, it was a really cold day too so I would’ve expected them to have changed his vest & jumper. Since then he has been crying and clinging to me at drop off, it’s awful & so unlike him, handing him over & walking away from him shouting no mummy no is awful & I dread the days he goes.
He went up with 3 of his friends from the baby group & looks happy in the photos I get sent but this change in him worries me.
His behaviour at home has changed too, he’s skipped a few afternoon naps (very unlike him), has had some restless nights & is quicker to get upset / angry.
My instinct is saying change nurseries but am I rushing this decision? Is this typical toddler behaviour (he’ll be 2 in April)? Or do I give it some time to see if it gets better?
