Dinosaur Daycare

Nasir

How old is LO? What is the age range in the classroom? Our first dyaacre which LO attended until she was a year had all infants in the same room 6wks - 13 months. They did not put all the infants on the same schedule so there was not a lights out quiet time. Around the time LO was really crawling, napping really suffered. She went from napping 3+ hours a day at dyaacre to less than an hour total. When we changed dyaacres, the new one has a split infant room (she was in the older half) where they established a definite schedule. Everyone ate and slept at the same times. They didn't do lights out through.Now that she's in a toddler room (started at about 15 months), they have lights out quiet time for their nap. When we made the change to the new dyaacre, the older infants all were about a year old. They were all transitioned to one nap after lunch that was 2-3 hours long.Also, we found that LO couldn't nap near certain other kids. Too much interaction between cribs and not enough sleeping. I belive LO ended up in a crib in the corner most of the time with no one around her.Also, does your LO have a comfort item (a lovey and pacifier)? Our LO sleeps much better if she has some object that she can cuddle with. She's not particular about what it is as long as she has something.I would suggest the following:1) request a crib move.2) request that your LO be put in the crib at specific times (after 2 hours of awake time for example)3) request that even if LO doesn't fall asleep that they don't remove from the crib for a certain amount of time. Our LO sometimes babbles herself to sleep.
