Anxious Child Starting Prep (First Year School).

[Artechim]

I delayed the school start by six months. He was so over the top anxious about it that sending him would have been a disaster. Six months later he was in a much better place and we didn't do lots of preparation the second time round - he tends to do better when he is given little warning so he doesn't have time to dwell and overthink it all.

She is very little still, I would suggest looking at delaying the school start for another year.

I'm not sure which state you are in, but I delayed mine starting 12months. She started at 5 and 9 months. Best thing I ever did for her.
She was still super stressed. Her teachers were awesome though. We discussed triggers with her. The teachers aide had come from the preschool and knew DD1 so that was awesome for us. Make her aware of what will happen, the processes, the things she will take. Get her to wear her uniform before so you can sort out any tactile stuff.
