I’ve not asked them for cameras. They just keep saying to me they’ve seen worse kids cry and it’s because he’s been unwell they are clingy to their parents etc. which is fine I understand. But he is so scared to even get out the car. Honestly I’m so against sending my child to nursery and I didn’t want to send him now but because I have to go back to work, my mum that used to look after him can’t due to health reasons. If it wasn’t for that she would have him. I’m just so confused with what’s happened
Yeah that’s suspicious and concerning and they’re not even addressing the issue they’re just saying other kids are worse? My boy loved it when he went few times last year would walk in so happy and come back with new songs he’s learned. Try somewhere else and see what happens, although he might be totally put off because of that place
I would maybe view a couple other nurseries and see where he seems most happy? My kids have been to a couple of different nurseries due to moving house and when you have found the right one you will definitely know. If you dont feel comfortable at that nursery I definitely wouldnt send him,
It took my son a whole 2 months to get used to nursery. It could be that’s he’s had that time off 🤔
It’s probably a phase- my son loved his childminders, would race in and not even say goodbye then in the last few weeks he has cried at drop off and clung to me desperate for me to not leave, unfortunately I have to work so I have to just peel him off me and give him to the childminders which is heartbreaking. But yesterday he went in without a look back perfectly happy. Sometimes they have little phases, doesn’t mean anything bad is going on at the nursery
He probably just needs to get used to it. He’s also been with you for a long time if he’s only going now, so might be that too. I personally wouldn’t think something happened immediately.
We had a few days like this after a week off being ill not long after he started and then he suddenly just walked in without looking back and has been great since, loves going to nursery. If you feel good about the nursery and staff perhaps give it a bit of time?
My son sometimes kicks off and he’s been in nursery for now just over a year. Some days he loves it and then hates it, depends on how many times I’ve spent with him or his mood. If your really concerned, book some more taster sessions and pay for the half day (we did this for about a month) and then they can’t complain your taking the space and also your looking after your child. If they disagree, then look for another nursery but at the end of the day it’s for your ease and your son so they need to understand.
Oh also, if he’s not been for a week even now during holidays or if he’s poorly, guaranteed he gets upset. It helped me to talk about it before hand and mention other kids names and the staffs names and tell my son what he’s doing that day or what he’s been upto
I’m really hoping it’s just a phase for him, we have noticed him being super clingy to me lately. Even if I pop out for 10-15mins he’s having a whole meltdown. The nursery is really lovely, they’ve got some really good reviews and they don’t take on a lot of children. The teachers seem really nice too, I’ve done all my research as I was never really liking the idea of sending him in the first place. but like I said I have to go back to work and my mums not in the best health to look after him. We’ve booked some more taster sessions and I’ve asked them if I can just stay with him until i know he’s ok for me to leave. We’re hoping they agree and take it from there. We’ve seen other nurseries in the area but this one stood out to me the most. I’m hoping and praying he does grow to like it.
I’m sorry but I’m overprotective and with all the stories u hear online I wouldn’t take him back and try a different nursery. If he does the same thing then it might be he doesn’t wanna be away from you. Do they have cameras there?
