He did fine- super easy transition. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-was-your-lo-when-the-first-went-to-daycare#post-81457 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 10:32:06 +0000 Andrea 81457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 months. Originally it was 4 months but I felt like it was too early and I wasn't working anyway so I stretched it to 6 months and then found a new job. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-was-your-lo-when-the-first-went-to-daycare#post-81431 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 10:18:41 +0000 T.H.O.U. 81431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She had just turned 3 months old when she started at the daycare provider. I was happy to be able to stay home so long </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-was-your-lo-when-the-first-went-to-daycare#post-81424 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 10:12:18 +0000 pelikila 81424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>8 weeks for us too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-was-your-lo-when-the-first-went-to-daycare#post-81421 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 10:11:00 +0000 mamabolt 81421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our LO will be 12 weeks, at least that's the plan right now since I will take that long off work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-was-your-lo-when-the-first-went-to-daycare#post-81418 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 10:07:00 +0000 mediagirl 81418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She will be 4 months old when she goes to daycare. Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-was-your-lo-when-the-first-went-to-daycare#post-81414 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 10:02:48 +0000 mrs. wagon 81414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>RJ was 18 months. With our next one I'll probably try to stretch out time off / Rob Sr.'s paternity leave / grandmas coming for stretches of time as much as I can... the ideal is maybe 5 months, but they could end up going as early as 2 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-was-your-lo-when-the-first-went-to-daycare#post-81411 Fri, 24 Feb 2012 09:59:30 +0000 Mrsbells 81411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we plan to take our baby to the daycare at about 8 weeks after her birth, so she will be 2 months old. It just seems like such a young age to leave a baby. How old was your LO when they went to daycare or were left with a nanny? </p>
