Hi Everyone!
I'm looking for your thoughts on transition days. I have done them in the past, some kids I find them beneficial, and sometimes I think it just confuses the kids as it's usually a shorter day or different hours. I'm starting a new 1 year old this week and I offered transition days as I always do, but I also let mom know my thoughts on them... sometimes they work, sometimes not. Mom's response was that she felt they were more for her then her child. It gives the child a chance to come while mom's still home rather then having trouble on the first day and having to pull her out of work.
Any thoughts? Do you offer them? Is there a way you do them that you found works really well? Or are we really just interupting our days so mom feels better about the new daycare?
