Ds is due to start a council-run nursery in September when he's three. Reading their letter, they describe a settling in process that seems to go on and on - I was expecting a settling in visit, but this talks of a gradual build-up to staying there for the full session with me available throughout - would love to know what this has meant in practice for anyone! Work might let me out for session one but I can't manage a week away (or more!) as can't take annual leave - dh is in the same boat.
Also trying to budget and wondered how much anyone else has been charged for the daily snacks etc - a small fee was mentioned, but no figure.
(Am loving that there is a Scotsnet to ask for local advice on now 
)
