    What do I do then? She has become very disruptive screams and calls everyone else name in the nap room she throws her blanket etc.

    Her mother said I should separate her but she has been napping in this room a long time with zero issues. If I separate her then she will think it’s a game, no?

    I have noticed its only when another 2 year old is here, today I put them on different sides the room with a large leather chair separating them so they can't see each other.

    She is messing up my quite time so bad everyone is tired and grumpy. She has also become very aggressive lately. She used to me my smallest and youngest in my care and now she is one of the big girls. Do you thinks it’s a phase do to her feeling like she's not the baby anymore?

    I'm starting to go crazy and getting stressed, I need my quite time to clean up after lunch, do my daily reports and sit down for 1/2 hour to de stress

    Today I stood outside of the nap room door and every time she became disruptive I went in laid her down and said good night! This lasted an hour then she was quite for 1/2 then started yelling my name! She is now on the couch with a blanket and I have asked her not to move until I tell her she can get up as one of my 3 year olds is napping. She will stay their do you think her naps are done? She will be 2 years old next week. Mine is almost 4 and she still needs to nap so I am at a loss!

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.
