Hey! This sounds exactly like my situation. My son is currently 8 months, we’ve agreed for overnights to begin at around 10 months, im not happy as he doesn’t live local and doesn’t have much prior experience with him overnight. We’re on more of a mutual set of terms, unfortunately not as great as id hope to be. My son is still a very unsettled sleeper, im lucky to get 4 hours a night. And would love a break but then again have my worries. You’re welcome to PM me 💙
My boy is 2 in April and have no plans of doing overnights but his dad has a history of drug abuse so I don’t trust him, if you are happy for her to go then it would work well for you all, just start small with once a week and go from there!
I don’t have any issues with his parenting or anything and he’s very trustworthy and know she’s in safe hands, it’s just the mum worry I guess. What if she’s constantly crying and I’m not there. His parents live local…about 20 minute walk away but I don’t drive and he doesn’t have a car at the moment so if anything does happen just feel like I’m stuck 😭 Maybe I just need to learn to let go a bit
Is there any way you could also sleep there out of sight for the first night to help her get use to sleeping in a new environment? That way the mam worry/anxiety would be at bay and if you’re needed you’re there!

Me & my sons dad broke up when he has only 2/3 months old so then xx
