As you all know, Grandma and Granddad Cailleteau have been staying with Baby Leo for about a month, since our daycare plans didn't work out exactly as planned. We had all planned for them to stay through November when our daycare spot opened. We have really enjoyed their help and the TLC they shower on our little man!
Well, we found out about 2 weeks ago that an infant had left an opening at the daycare, and our spot opened up. So his first day was yesterday! It was a much more difficult day for Mama than it was for Baby.
We love his school, but it takes a leap of faith to leave your most precious person with a stranger. I was a nervous wreck all day.
We have visited his school on numerous occasions, at different times of day. The infants are always clean and happy, and the teachers seem to love the children and treat them very well. There are lots of toys, and they even have some structured teaching/playtime.
His first day went very well. We swaddled him and put him down for his first nap of the day when we dropped him off. He did okay with his bottles, but his teacher said he was a little fussy during feeding time. (Could be the teething, or could be that he was complaining that it wasn't Mama!) He took 3 good naps throughout the day. (The teachers were impressed that he puts himself to sleep!) He was happily playing on a mat with some hanging toys when I arrived.
Apparently, the first day of school is very tiring, because last night he slept from 7:30 to 6:00!
