I have had children cry and scream for a couple of months before and it's hard to take. But as long as the parents are doing their utmost to help the child adjust to daycare by keeping the same schedule on the weekends, taking my advice about dropoff and pickup, bringing in a blanket/cuddle for naptime so the playpen smells like home, and putting their faith in me, I will keep trying. Some children are happy right away and other children take a while to adjust. WE are the ones who have to keep our sanity! Good luck!
