Nursery

Hi, at what age will your/did your little ones start nursery? Thanks.

I work in a nursery and my daughter will be starting when I go back to work, she’ll be 13 months old x

My son started at 13 months old x

My LG started at 8 months and she’s now just turned 2 and she loves it! Took her a week to settle in at the beginning but now she runs in! She has friends who we do play dates with and the nursery staff feel like family ❤️

How did you go about choosing a nursery? What do you think are the most important things to look out for/ask? Thank you xx

For us it came down to mostly a gut feeling. We visited about 5 and instantly didn’t like some and loved others. The reason we chose the one we did was because of how happy and how much the staff knew about every single child there even if they weren’t in their age group they still knew what they’d eaten, played with etc gave us such confidence that they genuinely cared about every child. They don’t take on huge numbers so she’s not 1 in a group of 30 she is 1 of 8 so has more 1-1 time. They have themed weeks every week with a key focus on a letter, colour, number and story theme which we loved. We have a parents evening twice a year where we get given their work folder and see all the work she’s done and where she’s excelling and where she struggles. She’s only just turned 2 but the level of effort the nursery put in to not only them having fun but also learning is what made us choose them ❤️

Help!!!
Am I wrong if I decide to stop doing baths etc for my little ones? We have a 3 and 1 year old. I do all the baths, wake up in the morning, cooking etc. I don't want them to be dirty but it's like I need a break and I'm tired of doing it all by myself. He will come up and help after they are out the tub every now and then and that pisses me off. I've had the children all day.

Partner works incredibly long hours, how much do they help out?
I'm struggling. Have been for a while. I've had one break from parenting my daughter, that was for 3 hours in December when I left her with her dad.

She's 14 months old and I'm just tired. I've done every night by myself. He's out of bed at 4am and doesn't get home until 7-9pm.

Heartbreak
After years of trying, months of back and forth on the fate of our marriage, indecision, fights. My husband and I are separating, divorcing. Whatever. I'm so goddamn heart broken.

Am I wrong?
My daughter’s 1st birthday was Thursday and nobody wished her a happy birthday from her dad's family but his mom watched his story. Should I put my foot down and set boundaries for them to accept accountability or should I just let them stay on that side for as long as they want and not worry about it?

TV good or bad
My 4 month old loves TV shows especially dancing fruits and baby TV is this a good thing or a bad thing at this age?

Hi mummas! I need help with potty training?
My daughter is 4 years old, she will be turning 5 this November. I’ve tried everything I can think of, to help her and encourage her. I’ve tried bribing, I’ve tried sticker charts, I’ve tried buying her underwear of her choice— nothing. She’s suspected autistic. Any help would be greatly appreciated 🎀✨
