Things were a bit different this time around. When Lachlan first started we had a bit if a wait for him to start and when he eventually started he was 18 months old and I had been back at work since he was 8 moths old. This time around we were lucky as children who already have a sibling in care get preference.
Charlotte will be going Tuesdays for 2 weeks then will start a Monday. Eventually she will go a Wednesday as well, but until there is a spot my mum and dad will take care of her.
The child care workers said that she was wonderful and barely cried (here I was thinking she would cry non stop). Also surprising she had 2 good sleeps and also self settled. She did so much better then I expected, I am so incredibly proud of her.
The workers also were glad that Lachlan didn't become over protective, apparently in the past some kids have become over protective when their brother or sister started and it make things hard when the workers try to care for the child.
Hopefully Charlotte and Lachlan will be just as perfect next week.
