Dd 3 is lovely but doesn't have that many friends as my husband and I aren't that sociable and we have no family around so most weekends it's just the three of us which sometimes I find a bit..draining maybe always entertaining her?!
We see two other families sporadically but we are hoping when she goes to school she will make more friends so she has some play mates to do things with at the weekend. Her nursery is a no go as hubby does all the drop off and pick ups at odd hours as I WFH and she's changing shortly as it's a very snobby private school nursery where most kid will stay on at the prep.
But the school we want her to go to has an odd system of the teachers collect the kids from the car park as it's rural with very limited parking..so my thoughts of being able to make friends with mums at pick up etc seem to have go by the wayside? And I'm wondering if I should pick another school.
We have signed her up to do rainbows and squirrels when she's four but there are huge wait lists and I feel like she's missing out a bit on interacting with other kids as she'll be an only child due to a nightmare birth and recovery.
Maybe I'm overthinking this but another bank hol where it's just the three of us while I watch other kids playing with friends and cousins makes me feel a bit sad for her 🙃 any thoughts? How does it work? I'm not looking for friends myself but some social events for her.
