For the third time in as many weeks, I had to sign an incident report form at nursery today as my 2 year old has been biting. I feel so upset and ashamed, and I just feel like there is something I've done wrong.
DD has been in a fantastic nursery 4 days a week for the last year, and she is generally a very easy going child. She also has good language skills, and the nursery staff have expressed surprise that she has resorted to biting to vent her frustration. She has previously displayed no other signs of agression towards adults or children.
I feel so disappointed and embarrassed that she is doing this. The nursery staff have been great and have told me that they are going to get some books into her room about not biting, and they will spend time with her reading them, hoping that the message sinks in. Does anyone have any experience of these books and whether they would be effective for a 2 year old? Does anyone have any other ideas for things I can do to address this?
