Hi folks, I look forward to your responses!
I have a part time 15 month old reaking havoc in my home daycare. If I didn't know how old he was, I would guess 9 months old. He is barely mobile, and super high maintenance. He will not go to sleep on his own, I have to cradle him to sleep every time. When I try to put him in a playpen for nap time he cries before I even get in the room. He throws up as I try and put him in the playpen, every time! He is constantly whining/crying all day. He doesn't eat anything except the rice cakes his mom sends for him. When I introduce something new (food) to him he gags & throws up.
I'm at the end of my rope with cleaning up vomit 2-3 times a day. I have spoke with parents a few times about getting him to go to sleep on his own (Mom lays down with him at nap time) & she blames the vomiting on a high gag reflex (which is fine but i cant be expected to clean up vomit multiple times a day) I simply can't lay down with him at nap time so this is causing a lot of issues.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
