    Great advice given already!! When I am transitioning children I find a consistent routine, lots of fun and laughter, cuddles and getting outside help the best! The quicker a child is comfortable with me and my home, the quicker they adjust. I have only had one child take the full 2 weeks to transition, he cried 24/7 but he also had a broken arm at the time which definitely didn't help!!

    I will have 2 new children starting next week, one full time and one 3 days a week and I'm a little scared already!! I've been really spoiled as of lately when it comes to transitioning but I haven't transitioned 2 at the same time since I first opened 2.5 years ago!! They were both under 1 though and for the most part were pretty good! The ones starting next week are 15 and 20 months so I'm hoping it goes well too. I'm going to stock up on my favourite wine though as crying all day is something that really gets to me!!! lol

    Good luck!

    My client phoned last night to tell me that her daughter wouldn't be coming to daycare for the next couple of days because she broke her arm. I've never dealt with broken bones before, any helpful hints?:

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Did you know?
On average, a listing is viewed each month by more than 40 parents looking for an available opening for their child!
