Nursery

It took my little girl about a week of going to settle properly. Now she runs in and doesn’t even look back, she absolutely loves it. X

That’s good to know! I’m hoping it won’t take long 😩 X

My girl walked in to her room with no tears for the first time yesterday and she's been going since January 🤦🏻‍♀️ but she has only done one day a week until this week.
I work in a nursery too and know that after couple weeks when they've settled, the tears (if they continue)are just to make parents feel guilty I swear! They're fine once parents have gone lol x

oh god when I went to go pick her up after the hour they said she has been completely fine and only started crying again when she seen me at the gate so I feel a lot better now but the guilt when leaving her was through the roof 😂 doing 2 hours tomorrow and Friday so hopefully come Monday she will do a half day 🤞🏻 x

Settled in immediately
My daughter loves playing with other kids. Although she started young but have had to switch nurseries 3 times

My little girl settled straight away however she’s been going since 11 months old. From what I see though they are upset at drop off but completely fine minutes after and happily playing if that helps reassure you x

Currently going through the same thing, getting ready to go on a morning we get 'no nursery today' and lots of tears.
She would happily run in and forget about is at her old nursery, so I'm really struggling with this at the moment

oh I bet you are when my daughter came out for the first time yesterday she said she was scared and I had to fight the tears back then hopefully she settles into the new one soon for you it’s horrible seeing them upset ☺️ xx

Mine doesn't go to nursery and my eldest never cared when he went so I don't have experience BUT I did work in a preschool and a school club where we had as young as 3 at the early drop off and I had to unpick them from their parents legs multiple times as they screamed but after 10 mins max they would have settled into an activity and been fine the rest of the day. Sometimes the emotions come back when they see their parents at collection because they're suddenly reminded but that doesn't mean they have had a bad day x
They have to learn that you are always going to come back for them and that could take a week in itself

My little boy has been going to nursery since he was 11 months old, I work at the nursery he goes too and he still cries on drop off 😂 but I do know he's okay once he's in and settled haha he is just a sensitive soul who likes to try and make me feel guilty😂 xx

My boy was a month or so, but he only goes one day a weedk so that didn't help him. He now goes in and doesn't even say bye to me 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Was olivers second day today. Was so hard 😭 actually he was much better at first. Going off without me and exploring then nursery teacher told him not to do something , took him away to do something else and he just had paddy. She suggested I try leave him for ten mins. He was distraught the whole ten mins 😭 he had a paddy and even hit the teacher which they are used to. It was so hard not to start crying myself. He was upset for ages when I returned. We ended up getting him distracted with something. She said we will continue with the little settling in sessions and he will get 1-1 support. He's got a review on Fri and think he will be referred to speech and language. They are lovely people but I feel like I'm doing the wrong thing. He's only 2. He's only going two days so I've got to wait until next Tues before we go back so we will be back to square one :( xx
