thanks guys..
we've been to the day care a few times, one of xmas party at a park. other times maybe an hr or so, for information sessions.. the carers all love carrying, cuddling and playing with him, esp since he goes to anyone and doesnt miss his mother or father!
i've met his carer and she's an older lady and is lovely.
im going to go for a couple of hrs during a normal day at the end of the mth, and then on his first day, maybe leave him for half a day and stay at home, just in case. if he's ok the day im w him, i'll just do the extra day. else maybe a couple more. but that day im going to be there, i'll spend sometime in his room w him and then let him be and go to anotehr room and read or do something.

Bron - i wish you were here so Poopy could spend day care days w you!!!
How many days is will going for?
