[quote=Anonymous]I'm also worried about this. My 3YO has always struggled with some sort of anxiety (noises, crowds, other kids, etc) and was JUST starting to actually enjoy friends, play places, "school", etc. He's been taken care of his whole life by either a nanny or my MIL so he's never been to preschool or daycare. In January, my MIL had started taking him to preschool (a parent/tot class twice a week at our rec center) and he was finally starting to enjoy it and explore on his own away from her and then this all happened.

To top it off, we're moving at the end of April and getting a new nanny starting this summer. I had high hopes and signed my 3YO up for part time preschool starting in the fall so as soon as this is all over I feel like it will be hard to make-up for lost time with his socialization and anxiety. I was also hoping to sign him up for some summer camps but I'm pretty sure that's a lost cause now.

My 5YO was in half day preschool and it was a really easy "out" transition for him. He doesn't miss his friends which is surprising to me and I'm also worried he's not going to want to do summer camps (if it's even going to be a possibility anyway) or to start K in the fall! [/quote]
