Childcare Transitions
An
article from Pregnancy & Baby
Arrive
at daycare at least 15 minutes ahead of time so that you can help your
child to settle into an activity before you have to head off to work.
He'll be less likely to protest your departure if he's having fun at the
arts and crafts table or measuring sand in the sandbox.
Resist
the temptation to sneak out the door when your child isn't looking. You'll
simply create more problems for yourself and your child. He may become
fearful that you're going to disappear again and be unwilling to let you
out of his sight for a minute, even when the two of you are at home.
