I have been a daycare provider for many years and I guess I have been lucky with all the families and children that I have provided care for because I have never had a complain in my part and the parents also. Until NOW! I have the cutest little girl that just started.... she's one years old and is going through the most horrible separation anxiety I have ever seen! I'm at wits end! I don't know what else to do! I have tried everything and nothing is working. I really want to make this work for her family but I don't know how much I can take of this crying, it's also disrupting the other kids in my care which is not very fair for them.
Any advice? maybe someone has some different ideas on how to handle this.. I have experienced separation anxiety with kids but it usually only lasts a couple of days... this is going on week two and I just don't see it ending!
Help!
