I felt confident leaving him at Creche

"I felt confident leaving him at Creche"

About: Warsop Children's Centre

(as a service user),

Leaving my son for the first time in creche was quite nerve wracking. He had never been left by himself before and he is quite clingy to me. When he went into Creche I was surprised they didn't have to ring up to collect me, turns out he were so good, he was happy playing and singing on some creche sessions.

Once I picked him up and came to bring him to other creche sessions, I felt relieved and confident in leaving him as I knew even though he cried when leaving I knew he'd be okay or even fall asleep whilst in creche.

Sometimes when I went to collect him he were sat playing lovely I didn't want to disturb him.

I now feel confident when leaving him.

Thank you for sharing your comments regarding your son settling into the crèche provision at our Children's Centre. Many of our parents are anxious at leaving their children for the first time, so I do hope that other parents read this post and see that in the majority of cases children do settle and enjoy playing with other children. It is so important that children get this opportunity to develop their confidence in new surroundings and with new people. This then helps with their transition into nursery and school later in their lives.

Carol
