[quote=Anonymous]If you're going to micromanage your kid's sleep to this extent, then you need to get a nanny. It's just not possible in a group care setting. It's not the provider's "convenience" but rather the needs of the entire group that trump your child's needs. Naps at 8:30 and 12:30 are really pretty normal for a 1 year old baby. And if he's taking a short AM nap, that's a very long time to expect him to stay awake, almost 5 hrs! (9:15- 2pm). Also sad to say it, but waking up at 5am is actually within the realm of normal. It might be easier just to adjust the whole family's schedule to this, if you can't switch to a nanny or nanny share. Finally, he'll be switching to 1 nap in just a few months (and you can even speed this up if you want). So this is temporary anyway, and I wouldn't tank a care situation over it if it otherwise works for you. [/quote]
