I just opened my daycare last week. I have my own 16m old daughter who's super active. I have one 12m old in my care right now (mom signed up 6m in advance) with a great mom.
Babe can't sit unassisted, stand, crawl (scoots though) can't pull up or cruise furniture, and can't get up from laying down or roll over from back to front, etc. I'm finding her extremely demanding and it's taking away from the joy of the job. She has bouts of crying where she needs to be held off and on. She is on 2 naps and day and though she's napping they are only 40m each, then cries until I go and bring her down. Then she's tired again by 3pm because she didn't nap long enough and has a meltdown. She's a big baby too and the weight is killing me. Where's she's at developmentally is really taking away from my own daughter as well. I'm feeling as though, perhaps this isn't the right fit.
Has anyone been in this situation?
