I could be wrong and I hope that I am wrong but I suspect my son’s nursery is lying about how long he naps for. They say he sleeps for 1.5 hours after lunch, the same as he does at home. When at home, we normally put him to bed around 5 hours after he wakes up and then he sleeps through. When we do the same on nursery nights after he’s apparently had a good nap, he seems shattered by bedtime and wakes multiple times throughout the night, which in the past has been typical for when he’s overtired.
I know nursery is much more stimulating and busy, but I don’t know if it’s possible for that to cause him to be overtired? If he only naps for 30 mins, I’d rather know about it so that I can adjust bedtime accordingly. However, it’s possible for me know if they’re lying or not. I don’t know what they’d have to gain by lying either, or if it’s just lazy admin. Or whether they’re just trying to keep us happy as we’ve made a bit of a fuss over his naps in the past.
How do I approach this without just massively offending them if I’m wrong? I don’t ever expect them to admit it, but if they are lying or being lazy with the admin, I want them to know I’m suspicious so that perhaps they’ll stop. I’m hoping I’m just going crazy though!
