[quote=Anonymous]I've been with my charges for 5 weeks, they are absolutely adorable and I am really growing to love them. They are 5, 2, and 9 months and all three have an appointment Friday for a routine check-up and the the youngest and oldest are due for vaccinations (9-month old Hep B and IPV) and 5-year-old Dtap booster. I'm very anxious about the trip. I know that shots can be a pretty traumatic for children, especially when mom and dad aren't there. MB told me not to tell the 5-year-old about the shots, because she doesn't handle it well! I'm glad it's not all three but a little overwhelmed of how I'm suppose to handle an screaming infant, wild two-year-old and panicking Kindergartener! Any suggestions from nannies and parents? What should I bring? I'm brining my iPad to give to the 5-year-old during and after the shot, hopping that works...and a bottle during and after the shot for the infant. [/quote]
