Wondered if anyone else is having nursery problems?
My child still hasn’t settled and she’s 3 months in, they have no outdoor play and it’s the same four walls constantly and my baby just so isn’t used to this. They’re always very negative when I pick up about how her day has been as she is always upset, they often send photos of her during the day and she ALWAYS looks upset, which breaks me. She’s now had nappy rash five times and is constantly coming home with other children’s belongings. I’m definitely moving her, but struggling to find another place that has spaces. I’m so upset by it all and hate to think of my little one being upset without me by her side 😢

We are 2 months in and LO hasn’t still settled either. We are still accompanying her for settling sessions, she won’t stay calm for a minute without either of the parent. So it is tough and every child settles differently I feel. We feel so broken too seeing her super upset, we haven’t even left the room and it is so hard. Just letting you know you are not alone and finger crossed LO’s settle well, that’s all I can say.

My LO settled in on the second week. They absolutely love going in. I definitely think it’s down to the staff if they can connect with your child.
The staff just don’t seem to have a bond with her at all. She really likes one member of staff who was sweet and silly with her, but she’s now on maternity leave and she’s struggling so much

Pull her out - it’s simply not worth it ❤️
When you find the right childcare setting, you’ll know 💐

I would take her out asap. She must be very upset and it seems as though they’re not looking after her properly with nappy rashes, maybe spend a little more time with her before putting her into a new nursery if possible?
Thank you all, i had no luck with a nursery, but I have a visit with two child minders this week, I’ve pulled her out and we’re currently using family until we can get her into somewhere. But already feel so much more positive about finding somewhere new ❤️
