mummy2girls wrote: UGH! here we go again...off to find yet another daycare for jenna. Not because im unhappy because im far from that! I absolutely Love her provider and this is teh fiorst time in 3 years ive let her go to a centre and not sit here crying about if she is takjen care of! I have to find another placement because jennas provider wants to terminate! I came home from work and on my answering machine is holly...she says she wants to terminate and find another dayhome for jenna. because she hasnt adjusted yet.and its been 2 months since being in the daycare:( she says she is better when there is less kids than a full house. Which i find odd because she does great in a daycare full of kids. So now i have to sit here and phone daycares and dayhomes and try to find a place for her. Im sitting here bawling my eyes out because i finally found a good place and now this! And with my hours im not sure if i can find a place that go with my hours without over paying..ugh! And in the dayhome i found she has less colds. In a daycare i find she gets sick waaaaay more. So i am torn on what to do! UGH! I called aron crying because thsi breaks my heart i have to put jenna yet in another place! why is thsi happening!

CantWait replied: I'm so sorry Shelley. It sucks when you find a good place and then have to switch. How long have you got to find a new place? At least a month I hope.

CosmetologyMommy replied: Good luck!

mummy2girls replied:
yes at least a month. ill need at least a month for sure!

MommyToAshley replied: Do you know what she meant by Jenna not adjusting? Is she crying the entire time? Is she not getting along with the other kids? If so, maybe it is better that you find another place anyways. But, maybe it is something the two of you can work on together.... just a thought.

Good luck. I can only imagine how hard it is to move her again.

mummy2girls replied:
she supposdly does better with less kids. She has her days whjere she may be whiny but alot of days she is very happy. i do believe she does do best with less because she loves to play independtly at home and even when we are at jennifers house she likes to play alone rather than with skylar. But at a centre with tons of kids she does awesome. I feel its because she has been yanked out too many times because of the bad centres she has been in so that is why she is finding it hard:(

luvmykids replied: I'm sorry, it's hard to have to move your child when you're happy and you think your child is too. Best wishes, hope you find the perfect place for her (and you) soon.

CAMSMOM1 replied: I'm really surprise that your daycare provider said this. As you know, I work with children. And we had a kindergartener that was having a hard time adjusting. It was 3 months before she was comfortable. We understood that she was young, and this was going to be difficult. And never once did we suggest she find another place to go. Even through her tough times in the beginning, she would calm down and have a lot of fun. So I knew it wasn't us, she was what we call a "slow to warm" personality, and we were patient and reassuring to her parents. So I'm surprised that she isn't allowing more time for her to adjust, and isnt' willing to help her through this. It sounds like this is the best thing, and maybe this woman doesn't have the patience it takes to work with children.
I think this answers your question, if you should open a dayhome. You don't want to continue going through this. I understand you can't open one right away, so Jenna wil probably have to go somewhere else for awhile, but it can be your motivation to get started on the process of opening up your daycare.
I'm sure Jenna is having a hard time adjusting. Since she's been moved so many times. Most people have a difficult time with change, especially children. And I just don't feel this is the right place for her, and it is almost a blessing you found this out in the beginning. KWIM?
I know this will work out for you and Jenna.

TeagansMom609 replied: Sorry. I know what a pain in the butt it is to actually find a good daycare provider. Good luck. Things always have a way of working out.

ediep replied: thats such a shame...so sorry! I hope you find somewhere great for Jenna soon!

fashionmumofboys replied: I hope you find a daycare soon for Jenna. That totally sucks that your daycare provider was not willing to work at this to make it all come together.

Good luck.
