[quote=Anonymous]I sent my older child to daycare at 18 months and while there was a lot of crying at drop off for a while, the rest of the day was fine, I was told. I'm now sending my younger one at the same age and we're on week 2 and really struggling. Not only is drop off tough, but she apparently is just crying throughout the day every day, refusing to eat lunch and not napping well. I usually pick her up and she's still crying. She lost her voice after the first couple of days there. She's generally a pretty chill, well-adjusted baby at home. She's probably had more social interaction than my older one who was a pandemic baby and barely saw anyone before he started daycare. Any tips/suggestions? Or just wait it out? Per the teacher's instructions I've brought a favorite stuffed animal and some books for her. I'm also not lingering around at drop off. I know it will get better, but am wondering if there is anything I could do to make it less miserable. [/quote]
