does anyone else have a problem with their little one refusing to eat at nursery? my dd has been 2 days a week since july and is still refusing to eat anything bar breakfast and yoghurt...she's not the best eater at home either - good days and bad. any advice welcome!

How old is your dd? Is she old enough to help make up a packed lunch with you to take. I often find reluctant eaters will eat their own creations, or you could try sending in her own special plate/bowl spoon etc, can the staff make the food a bit interesting ie: make a face out of it on the plate or a car / train etc that goes down well.

thanks atworknotworking and sorry i didn't respond. how funny, just a few days after posting this she started eating...they had a special xmas lunch and she wolfed down the lot! i'm hoping the same magic will work on the early waking...4.45am today, not good!!
