I have always loved babies and toddlers. But I can tell you from my experience that they are not easy at all! Today another dck has started. I always thought that "I have seen all" but this kid proved me wrong I'm exhausted! Not because I took him out and walked non stop almost 2 hours. It's because his non stop(believe me, I'm not exaggerating) crying. His mother left him around 8:30am, he didn't cry when she left. I was thinking "great it is going to be a good day" boy i was wrong! Just after about 5mins he started and he did cry non stop!
The boy is just a year old and is very sweet so his parents'. I will do my very best to make him feel comfortable and adjust here. But I don't know how long I can handle this if he carry on crying like this.

I'm very tired. I want to go to sleep but I don't want to cause if i do then i wont be able to sleep at night.

Maybe I should accept 2+ years old children into my care. At least you can communicate with them and explain them things if they cry or whatever.

So my question to you is, do you prefer to look after older children then small babies, toddlers?

Thank you.
