It helps if you can stay a little and see what your child is doing. Remember, your child is glad to see you, even if it does not always look like it. Getting used to child care can take a while. Children may think child care is just for a few days. They may get upset later when they realize they go day after day.
Some children hold in their sad and angry feelings at first.
They may let those feelings out weeks or months later. Let your child take a stuffed animal or favorite toy. Talk with the teacher, child-care provider, or director at the center. Visit so you can know about your child's care there. The setting may not be the best place for your child.
