Hi Just wondering about what the general consensus seems to be as far as 3 year olds go. I had a person call me for a prospective spot but she had a 3 year old and I hesitated and dragged my feet to even call back because I am thinking it is harder to get 3 year olds to sleep than the younger ones that you can train for nap time.

I have one child who is 3 and who I got after they were already 3 and I have never had luck getting this child to nap. I usually put a video and some colouring for the 3 year old and leave the child awake during nap while everyone else naps. The 3 year old also plays with my older children when they are home but even with a video - it still doesn';t give me much of a break because one ear and eye is always sort of on the child and constantly telling them to play quietly and talk quietly. The child still asks me questions and talks to me so it doesn't make for a quiet break like I have when I have only 1 and 2 year olds

Do you have 3 year olds and do they nap?
