[quote=Anonymous]I have a 2 yo and a 4yo and our first AP will be leaving in less than a month. I'm grateful for her but also ready for the year to end; but of course my kids have gotten attached, love her and will undoubtedly be confused and sad that she is moving out. I've tried to preview what's going on in basic terms but of course it's hard for little ones to understand. The older one is asking why she is leaving and I'm worried they will feel abandoned by her. Also, the new AP will start a few days later...in retrospect I wish I had planned for a longer gap in between because I think it will be a tough transition. Any advice about helping little kids understand and process the departure of an AP/arrival of a new one? [/quote]
