I should add that the one I went to has two wings - one for 12mths and under, one for older kids. They keep them apart as their sleep needs are so different, as we'd all now, when they are little compared to as toddlers.

Kaz - that 3yo next door would have been quite traumatic!!

Kate - maybe a day stay would be enough for you, something to consider anyway. It's also relatively easy to get in for day stay, you just need a referral from your MCHN. There is also generally not much of a wait either.
