April 2022 Babies 🇬🇧

Hey, my 4 year old started school last week and she has been awful every evening. I know she must be going through so much emotionally and doesn’t have the words to express but it’s so hard. She’s hitting us, throwing her toys, chatting back so much and is so so rude. It’s like she’s a different child. My partner isn’t helping, not listening to any research I’ve been doing on how to deal with this. He’s blaming me. I’m 6 months pregnant and just feel so sad. Anyone else going through something similar? Xx

Little one has just started school and has been offered the Flu Vaccine later this month. I am inclined to say no as they have so many vaccines already and surely it’s good to build some immunity. I just wanted to see what others were doing.

Does anybody know anything about the free 30 hours funding? I told her nursery her official leave date would be this thursday she never mentioned anything about contract ending or funding running out. She started primary school on the Friday. We’ve now had an email stating we owe them full payment for 2 of the days she was in this week as the funding ran out in August. When speaking to the manager last month she never mentioned anything about funding running out or what we would be charged for her staying in an extra 2 days she just said no problem. I’ve looked on my childcare account on the gov website and it says the code was valid until November. Can anybody help?

Anybody else very emotional this week about our 4 year olds going to big school. My heart aches for her to stay home with me but i know she’s ready for her next chapter, can’t stop worrying and crying about her leaving me for 5 days a week. Just wish they stayed little for longer 🥺

We have booked a holiday for next June which I will be taking him out of school for. We are thinking about booking a trip to Disneyland Paris as he has an inset day on the 16th of October and is off for two weeks rather than one. I was thinking of sending him in for half a day on the 15th and then picking him up but my partner said we might as well just keep him off for the day and get the shuttle early. What would you do??
