    @kc8vji You could get a kitchen helper/toddler tower and move it around wherever you want :) it’s just steps and a platform that is enclosed so they can’t fall out

    17 month old starting daycare: more short days or fewer full days?

    @nearu Yes naps can be so tricky! At this point he’s napping once a day so it simplifies things. As long as I can get him home without falling asleep in the car I should be okay though it is pushing his nap later than it’s been recently. It’s true that then I can only do stuff with him after...

    17 month old starting daycare: more short days or fewer full days?

    @jimbobby2021 Hmmm interesting! I do think it might be odd to just work for 4 hours, but at the same time it’s possible I may like it. I can see how it may be stressful for some to have the day be split. I’m not really sure how I will react honestly. Very good point about consecutive days. I’d...

    17 month old starting daycare: more short days or fewer full days?

    I’m going back to work soon after being home with my LO who is almost 17 months. I’m going to be starting a new job and am lucky that it’s very flexible, part time and super close to home. I’m really nervous about my son being in daycare as he’s very attached to me and pretty slow to warm up...
