How’s everyone coping have your little ones started yet?
My little girl started nursery today! She settled in quite well no tears and hugged and kissed me goodbye and told me to go and get a coffee! When I picked her up the teacher said she done really well she did get a bit tearful half way through the day they think she was overwhelmed but she settled back down again. They said she didn’t really speak much to them other than to say “yes” and “no” words but they heard her chatting with the children so they don’t feel there’s any concerns there but just wanted to check that she’s chatting at home ok, and she is - she never shuts up at home
but it’s made me a bit worried. Is it normal for kids to be shy? I mean I assume it is normal it’s her first day meeting new teachers she can be quite reserved with strangers so I’m not obsessively worried but my anxiety is making me kind ofquestion should I be more worried! I guess I just want reassurance
anyway hopefully she’ll open up a bit more tomorrow and the days that follow when she feels more safe! Tomorrow’s session has been extended by an hour as they felt she coped quite well today! So I guess that’s a good sign?
