I know I’ve still got a while before my daughter turns 3 and heads off to nursery but since the start of this year I’ve honestly cried so so much about it because I know it’s coming soon. I didn’t think I would be so anxious about it. Anyone else feeling this way? I can’t even mention nursery without feeling a lump in my throat 🥲

Ah bless. It's not easy at the start. To maybe make it easier for yourself, why not send her to a child minder maybe 1 day or 2 morning a week now already.
Slowly both of you will start to get used to not seeing each other all the time. It will help het too for when she goes to nursery.
At 11 months I started sending my LO to a childminder 5 hrs every Monday.
Then at 16months she did the 5 hrs at childminder and every Thursday a full day at nursery.
Then at 24 months she is now doing 3 days at nursery and 2 days with me..
Next year she will do 4 days nursery and 1 day with me. I phase it out gradually.
