The teacher texted me updates and pics during her first week though </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091934 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 17:38:59 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2091934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I called when we were having some known issues just to check in. The head teacher also kept a phone on her and agreed to text me updates if I was concerned. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091918 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 17:15:54 +0000 Mama Bird 2091918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't usually call, but I did on the first day and when he has a rough morning and goes off crying :crying: it's usually kind of pointless because they always say everything's fine. Actually called today to ask his teacher if he's been acting oddly, because he's been really sad all weekend and I can't figure out what's up. But of course she said everything is fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091647 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 15:00:31 +0000 tinyperson 2091647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: What a sweetie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091612 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:45:33 +0000 2PeasinaPod 2091612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we first started, he had a rough time adjusting, so I called once/day for the first 2 weeks (he only went 2x/week). Each time, they let me know that he stopped crying immediately after I left and was doing great. I loved his teacher, so I started to just catch up with her in the morning on how he did the previous time he was there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091604 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:39:40 +0000 autumnlove 2091604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: sounds like a good day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091599 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:37:27 +0000 LuLu Mom 2091599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think once is good :) I know it's hard but she needs time to get adjusted too. </p> <p>I will shoot a text to our in home daycare if LO had a rough night or morning to see how she's holding up or if she had been sick. I call if I'm going early or going to be late, something time sensitive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091596 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:36:54 +0000 bunnylove08 2091596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kimberlybee: Thank you. I really appreciate the well wishes. DH and I are a nervous wreck </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091593 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:35:00 +0000 Kimberlybee 2091593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: What a sweet, compassionate girl she is! Glad her first day is going well. Hope she has a great first week at daycare! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091585 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:31:23 +0000 bunnylove08 2091585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Amelieisme: thanks, I totally called and I think I'm done for the day. </p> <p>I got a great update from her teacher. Her teacher told me she saw another kid crying and she went to the kid and said, "It's okay to be sad. My mommy and daddy are at work too".</p> <p>She is napping without a problem. I feel really good. </p> <p>Thank you everyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091577 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:25:24 +0000 Amelieisme 2091577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: I think calling again on the first day is totally reasonable. The daycare is probably used to it! I cried the first day I left both DS and DD. Its a rough day! The daycare knows that and will likely be happy to reassure you :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091570 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:22:37 +0000 autumnlove 2091570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe a couple times a year. nothing regular. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091567 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:20:33 +0000 bushelandapeck 2091567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a nanny so it's a little different, but I do text at least once a day to see how things are going. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091564 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:19:51 +0000 Ajsmommy 2091564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I called 1-2 times a day for her first week. Now I only text if I'm going to be early or late...or if something changes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091560 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:18:01 +0000 Adira 2091560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as @Anagram: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091553 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:16:18 +0000 mrbee 2091553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did the same as @Anagram: ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091550 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:15:07 +0000 Anagram 2091550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I called on her very first day, just once.</p> <p>Since then, I've only called if I'm picking her up early (to let them know), or are going to be late, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-call-your-daycare-to-check-on-lo#post-2091540 Mon, 02 Mar 2015 14:11:46 +0000 bunnylove08 2091540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today is LO's first day of daycare. She was a trooper when I left. I got to work and DH and MIL wanted me to call the daycare to see how LO was doing. I called at 10 and they said she cried but she is okay. She was sitting with the teacher and having breakfast. </p> <p>I'm tempted to call again to see how she is doing but I dont want to be a nuisance. Should I call or just find out when I get home?</p> <p>Tell me if you called to check on LO at daycare? </p>
