I have only one week till I head back to work.
We looked into both Child Care and getting a nanny for Abigail and decided to Child Care for a number of reasons. The main one being that she LOVES other kids! And gets real enjoyment out of being around other children.
Yesterday Abigail went to orientation at her new Child Care from 9am - 12pm
When I picked her up she was in great spirits (considering she had been sick in the week leading up to it) and greeted me with a big smile.
Each and every day she is in Child Care they write down all about their day and you can see what they have been up to!
Here is yesterdays!
I quite like the carer and I am sure she is in good hands.
Doesn't stop the guilt and the missing her (and it was only for 3 hours!)
I think it will take a little getting used to. A whole lot of organisation. And lots of special quality time on the weekends.
How do/did you cope with sending your children to Child Care?

Oh wow, looks like she will be very well looked after! Hopefully you won't feel too guilty knowing she is in very good hands :)
ReplyDeleteWow, that's awesome! My babies childcare doesn't do that record to give to the parents (they log the basics so you can check that). Glad it went well :-).
ReplyDeleteThat record sheet looks great! I'm sure Abi is going to love childcare and time spent with her grandmother.
ReplyDeleteAnd Abi ate two lunches too! LOL Lily always has seconds too!
I still find it hard to cope when I'm work and even though she enjoys childcare I wish she was with me. I guess that why they all it working mother's guilt!
