I am currently transitioning an 11 month old and i LOATHE the transitioning process, especially from kids who parents have been too attached and havent gotten their children ready for daycare. I love the kids, they are all very special to me, but transitioning can be the hardest part of the job. I think the parents did a decent job transitioning this baby, but she is going thru the typical stuff, making strange with her surroundings, not eating a lot, wants to be held, can't be out of sight and screaming thru naps and waking everyone (i did get her to sleep though, 30 min so far, crossing my fingers!). She is not as bad as her older sister was though- I also care for their oldest, who is now 3 and she was one of the hardest kids i ever transitioned. In my opinion, they didn't do a very good job getting her ready for daycare. This child cried for months, vomiting almost everyday, would SCREAM and cry for 6 of the 8 hrs of the day, didn't eat, didn't sleep, was always sick, wanted to always be held/rocked, and was sucking the life out of me. It was obvious that the child was not ready for daycare. She got better at daycare after about 4 mos gradually, luckily, i was ready to give their notice.
