Starting Daycare Win!

Working Mom Success

My 7 month old started daycare at 4 months and just graduated to the “still itsy bitsy but not teenie weenie anymore” class. I’m not going to lie, it was a struggle letting go and took some time for her to settle into a schedule. Whether that would have been easier at home I have no idea.

But- she absolutely loves her teachers and has 100% learned new skills from them and her classmates. She even has a favorite classmate already who waves bye and sometimes gets upset when she leaves.

On her last day in the first class, one of her teachers gave us a card:

Today I want to tell you how deeply grateful I am for having entrusted the care of your most precious treasure to us. I will miss your laughter and mischief. I am happy to have been a part of your early learning process. I love you, V. Miss B.

It makes me feel so good to know how loved and cared for she is there! I know not every daycare is awesome, and we are definitely paying a premium for a good one, but they’re out there!
