Routine change once at nursery

Have the nursery said he has to be dropped off at 1?
My little boy does afternoons at nursery which start at 1, he currently naps around 12-2pm so we just drop him off once he's woken up and had lunch, end up dropping him off at 2:30ish and nursery are more than happy with this, bit annoying as I've paid for that time but can't help when he naps! I'm hoping as he gets older he will start lasting till 1pm so he can nap as soon as he gets to nursery as that's when they start their nap times

yes they said 1pm would be the latest for the afternoon session. I suppose I could have a word nearer the time if he's still in the same routine

I'd try and change the times to adapt to nursery

You could potentially drop him off asleep? If he would stay asleep and if you’re using a buggy and they’re happy to take him asleep.
Or they could pop him down to sleep at 1pm when he gets there, then maybe cap the sleep till 2pm?

Not exactly the same situation but my LB has started nursery a few days a week and their sleep pattern is different to ours and he has adapted to the new routine.
It wasn’t ideal at the start and I had wished they would do something different with him to not mess his usual routine but it was fine once he got used to it.
I’d probably try to start changing his pattern at home to prepare for it, at least it’s one less transition when it happens.

These are things to think about ladies prior to startung nursery.
