[quote=Anonymous]Sounds like too much to me, but I think the walking may be a downside to selecting a center without a playground? Sippy cups leave before moving to the 2s, but not immediately upon moving into toddlers. Bottles and cribs had to be over before move to toddlers. I have 4 kids. Of the three who walk, only one would have been able to attend your daycare! So far, I have had one very early walkers and two very late walkers. The fourth might make it, but it will be close! IMO, it's too much. It also doesn't sound developmentally like your DD is ready for the demands of the room. Have you shared your concern with the teacher and then the director? Remember you catch more flies with honey than vinegar. If you want the center to work for your dd/you, then get in there and make it happen. Ignore 'negative" comments, praise the hell out of the teacher and ask how you can encourage your daughter at home. This can be a make or break for a daycare and parent relationship -- take control and make it RIGHT for you! BE KIND! BE LOVING! BE POSITIVE! REDIRECT NEGATIVE COMMENTS back onto the friendly path. (Even if you don't like what you are hearing or believe what you are saying -- fake it until you make it!) I'm not shairing this because I assume that you are reacting in any other manner, but just in case you haven't tackled the situation yet... it's a little friendly advice!! Whether you decide to leave or find a compromise, you know what is best for your daughter and your family![/quote]
