I literally take him out of his carseat and take of his jacket and hand him to his teacher who is right htere waiting for us and looking for cuddles from him! We talk a little while I fill out his papers. The teacher takes his bag and unpacks everything for us later. And then we say goodbye - which is me trying to get a kiss in while he is looking around and craning his neck jonesing to play with the other kids! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490787 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:39:44 +0000 littlek 490787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends, usually 10 minutes. I have to get LO out of car seat, take his jacket off, I put him on the mat, give him toys, fill out his sheet and then talk to his teachers about his day so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490771 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:31:17 +0000 brownie 490771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10 minutes or more depending on his mood. I have to sign him in, take him potty, then to his room. Then say goodbye. That's a good day. On bad days I have to strip him from me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490767 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:29:28 +0000 LuLu Mom 490767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say 5 minutes in morning, I take her out of carseat, give her kisses and give her to our lady. I usually stay and chat when I pick her up, since LO is usually one of the last ones there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490761 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:28:17 +0000 mediagirl 490761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: it's so hard. I spend way too much time kissing and hugging her. :) The ladies don't seem to care. M is always the first in the door so we're not rushed by other parents or kids being there, which is nice. I take her in and am immediately met by the morning worker. She puts out her arms and says, "Come give me some sugar, M!" Haha, I love the south. So, she takes her and sits down to take off M's hat and coat. Meanwhile, I put away her bottles and food. Then, I will go get M from Becky (the morning woman) and give her hugs and kisses. I'll pass on when she last ate and if there is anything they need to know. Then we'll either chat for a few minutes or I'll head out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490742 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:22:26 +0000 autumnlove 490742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I just fly out of there because I have to go back to work and I don't have time to chat with other parents or teachers! It takes me 10-15 minutes to pick her up.:-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490735 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:21:06 +0000 Mrsbells 490735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I just take her jacket and hat off and then put her in the highchair and the teachers take over from there.<br /> Some of them are chatty and will talk to me for a while but only on certain days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490721 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:17:19 +0000 Mrs. Bee 490721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>very quickly in the mornings -- a couple min at most. charlie usually wanders off and starts playing with his friends so we just put his lunch in the fridge and leave.</p> <p>in the evenings we're always there longer because charlie doesn't want to leave and we chat with the teachers. we're very friendly with them so sometimes we can be there over 30 min! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490716 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:13:01 +0000 yoursilverlining 490716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably about 10 minutes, but our daycare ladies are very sweet and chatty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490708 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:09:46 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 490708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: @winniebee: @Mrsbells: How do you get out of there so fast?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490700 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:06:49 +0000 autumnlove 490700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 5 minutes! A little longer on Mondays because I have to put her crib sheets on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490699 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:06:26 +0000 Mrsbells 490699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not too long usually about 5 mins. I try not to make a big deal about saying goodbye so I dont upset her. Once she is in her high chair having breakfast I leave. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490694 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:05:03 +0000 winniebee 490694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty quickly! Usually there a total of 5 mintues including time it takes to get DS out of the carseat and out of his jacket and hat and fill out his daily report/sign in. He has zero interest in saying goodbye to me - he's jsut too "busy" - though of course I smother him with a few kisses anyways. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-do-you-stay-at-daycare-when-you-drop-off-your-lo#post-490679 Wed, 09 Jan 2013 10:01:14 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 490679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't seem to get out of there in under 10 min and I can't tell if it bothers the ladies or not. I just keep wanting one more kiss or hug from DD :-)</p> <p>I really want to start getting out of there faster, but I have no idea how. LOL </p>
