[quote=Anonymous]Tell us more about the separation anxiety. Did she stop crying eventually after a week, once you left the place? After an initial adjustment period, kids may be sad about the goodbye and then usually get into the swing of what’s happening at the daycare. A lot can depend on your attitude and how you frame it. If you act like going to daycare is a funeral, your kid will pick up on it. Your child will cry at the goodbyes. You have to make them short and loving but matter-of-fact. It’s a big ask to request MIL to watch your busy, bustling toddler three days a week. And I wonder if she didn’t come over more often because your mom was on the scene; maybe she was uncomfortable? (I’m not saying that’s right or wrong.). Your mom went WAY above and beyond. You can’t expect the same from MIL. [/quote]
