[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So there’s a few things going on:

- you definitely should get your nanny to fill in one of those recommendations as she has been with your child the longest. There should be an area in your statements that you can explain she has been his longest caregiver.

- in general these schools like to see that the child has already been socialized in some kind of group setting. That could have been your daycare if not for his hard transition. Be sure to mention any playgroups or other group settings. Or lessons that your child has done that your nanny has taken him to.

- it’s been only two months in daycare, aren’t the recommendations due by Feb? I would talk to the daycare teachers about your intent to apply and how to work with them to have the best recommendation. Hard, yes if he is the “difficult” kid it’s a ding. But since it’s Feb hopefully time for improvement.

Good luck. [/quote]

1. Good to know. Don’t they assume the nanny is highly biased because she worked for us? Would that incriminate us further since we sort of draw attention to his application? Do most people do this?
2. He did do other playgroups and he did fine. How can I bring this in? 
3. They are due beg to end Jan and the daycare would write them before the holidays. What kinds of things can I do to better work with the daycare? We have been very cooperative. He is showing some improvement already but I don’t know if he needs to achieve perfection.
