Aawww Sushee...

I'm glad that Charlie didn't show "separation anxiety".... although it's a shame that you do.
But it will get easier for you.

With all the kids running around, and all the activities they do... he will sleep really well... during the day and probably at night too.

I take Shaun to two places... Family day care where there are just 3 other kids (he being the youngest) and he gets lots of attention from the carer and she takes them for walks most days. And an Occassional Care Centre where there are up to 15 kids (around the same age - but he at the younger end). I like this too as I believe it helps his social skills being with so many other kids... and gets outdoor activities on swings and sandpits etc.

He also plays well by himself at home. He has a 'toy room'... and will often go in there of his own accord to play with his toys.

thanks for the update on Charlie's experience. I hope that it gets easier for you, and you can enjoy your 'me time'.
