[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would they allow you to just head out to the park as soon as you arrive for duty with the girl?I thinkyou can setup your own routine with her for while you're with her. Like as soon as you walk in, you give a big hug, sing a song, change her diaper, feed her a snack, then head out to the park or story time, then head back. Having a routine is comforting, so she'll get used to you with time if you're allowed to be consistent. If they won't allow you that much, I don't know what else you can do other than try to reason with them, but if they're set in their ways - best of luck. [/quote]

This, OP.  If the mother cannot see how she is harming her child then remove the child from the upsetting situation and take her out when the mother is leaving.  [/quote]

+2.  I used to do this with my twin charges every day.  Their MB/DB weren't even lingering, they just had a hard time with the transition each morning and evening.  We left for the park or a quick walk (even in the winter) as soon as I got there and we were out when MB got home in the evening so she had a minute alone to get changed, let out the dogs, etc without the kids crawling all over her.  It made the days much less stressful and everyone, especially the kids, much happier in the long run.

This isn't a quitting, or even red flag, issue. The transition is simply a little more difficult for your DC than others.  Be a little creative here! If you can't leave the house, create another routine that separates you and DC from MB in the morning so she can say a quick goodbye and get out the door. [/quote]
