What kind of hand overs do you get at nursery?
My daughter has just turned 3 and she’s been going to nursery since she was 8 months old.
Her nursery was really good up until about a year ago when the manager went on maternity leave. Since then the communication has been shocking just things like they’ll tell me she’s had a nap but then when I speak to my daughter she said she hasn’t and today they didn’t tell me she had a wee accident until my daughter said at home I did a wee wee in my sleep and that’s not the first time. She has just gone into preschool and I understand it’s hard to keep an eye on all her when the ratio is so high but I expect to be told she’s had an accident at nursery.

Am I being petty?

Well, she may not be totally reliable. But it would annoy me if I thought they were just saying what I wanted to hear.

today they didn’t tell me she had a wee accident until my daughter said at home I did a wee wee in my sleep and that’s not the first time.

I don't understand how they could not mention this - had they not changed her clothes? Didn't they hand you back the dirty ones?

@TTPD Sorry I meant to say my MIL picked her up when she had the accident so she didn’t know what I sent her in and it wasn’t until she got her home and told us she had a wee in her nap that we then checked her bag and saw a nappy bag of wet clothes like everything knickers, trouser, top, vest, muslin cloth (she sleeps with this for comfort)
They also didn’t put a vest back on her even though there’s one in her bag too.

But yeah no proper hand over I’m going to mention it tomorrow but I feel like they’ll brush it off because on the day where my MIL picked her up I didn’t tell them because it was a last minute thing due to finishing work late, they have a photo of her and her name though, so one lady brought my daughter to the door then they had to ring me to check it was okay for her to go home with her nana (which is good) then a different lady brought her back to the door and it’s like they forgot to do handover nothing was said 🤷🏼‍♀️

Oh I see - yes that would be annoying. If she's having accidents that is something you should know.
Plus I don't always look in the nursery bag every day (and can't always remember exactly what I've sent her in in) so a bag of wet dirty clothes could be missed for a day or two.

At our nursery they'd definitely say, and they hand the dirty clothes over separately so it's obvious even if they happened to not specifically mention it.
