    Thank-you so much for those tips.
    This morning went very smoothly. She was fine. Like you said the carers said the first day is easier than the second or third. Im going to pick her up at lunch time today. She woke up with a cold and she had a late night last night so she will be tired.
    I hope she's ok on wed. Thats what Im really worried about, when she realises its a regular thing. Its good though, I have time to help her settle in, I don't start uni till next month.
    It was funny, the other day when we went in for a visit there was a little boy with a really snotty nose and today I saw three other kids in that class with the same and dd too. They are going to go through a lot of tissues in there today.
    Lots of new kids and parents this morning. Dd's carer was comforting one little boy and she was giggling because she didnt know his name yet!

    I truly believe in "most" cases, it's worse for the mum!! She will love it,, and you'll wonder why you ever worried!! My DD is just 3 and had 2 weeks off CC over christmas and EVERY single day she asked if she could go to kindy!! It's nice when you see them love it so much. ANd it's great you have time to settle her in, that will be reassuring for you xo

    Thanks mumma2girls. How was your dd when she started. I cant wait till mine is excited about going. I went back to pick her up and about half the class were crying. There are lots that are just starting today and they were so tired. DD was crying but I stayed there with her and had some lunch, then she was ok when we left. She was even telling me, this is my kindy, you don't stay you go to school. Fingers crossed for wed. xx
