But at home she'll give me 2+ hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1737636 Thu, 03 Jul 2014 08:21:01 +0000 Pumuckl 1737636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Once he is down to sleep at home he sleeps longer at home BUT getting him to take that nap is more of a struggle at home than at daycare. So a little of both I guess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1737618 Thu, 03 Jul 2014 08:15:27 +0000 jetsa 1737618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ALV91711: @daniellemybelle: ha so who knows! It's all dependent on the kid apparently </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1737172 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 21:03:59 +0000 ALV91711 1737172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: DS started daycare at 1 and he naps better there than he ever has at home.</p> <p>Daycare he goes down no problem at the same time every day and it is pretty much 2.5 hours every day.</p> <p>At home it has always been a struggle to get him to nap and now on the weekends his naps are random. Different times and pretty much 1.5 hours, sometimes shorter but never longer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1737159 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 20:57:00 +0000 jetsa 1737159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: that's a really good question because DS has been going since 6 weeks but he's only part time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1737108 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 20:18:07 +0000 daniellemybelle 1737108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is interesting! I wonder if it depends on if your LO goes to daycare full-time, and if they have been going from a very young age. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1737037 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 19:25:44 +0000 sslm 1737037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Daycare by a mile! She takes 2 naps at daycare, an hour and a bit in the morning, and 2-2.5 hours in the afternoon!!!! Lucky to get one 40 min nap at home </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1737018 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 19:15:55 +0000 kml636 1737018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daycare lady claims she will nap 2 -3 hours for her. I'm very skeptical bc she only naps 90 mins at home... I don't get it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736583 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 15:35:31 +0000 rrachael 1736583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Daycare ... I shouldn't jinx it because she's napping at home right now and she's been doing well here since we've been off for summer .... But for the longest time I couldn't get her to nap longer than 45 minutes at home but she'd nap 2-3 hours at daycare! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736537 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 15:21:12 +0000 plantains 1736537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Daycare.

DS would sleep better if he didn't fight it so much! Its ridiculous. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736337 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 14:21:57 +0000 catlady 1736337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At home, for sure. Her naps are much longer (1-1.5 hrs) and more predictable. Her naps at daycare are short and she doesn't seem to be on any schedule at all. Plus she gets so excited by all the kids around her that sometimes she refuses to go to sleep and stays up way too long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736303 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 14:14:36 +0000 SwanSong 1736303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Daycare, he goes down without at fight, but at home he fights sleep like it's his job. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736281 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 14:08:22 +0000 Cherrybee 1736281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Home. In fact, at 11.5 months, she takes max one 30 minute nap per day at daycare. At the weekend, she sometimes takes three naps of 10 - 60 mins each (she's catching up I guess). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736274 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 14:04:57 +0000 Smurfette 1736274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly these days, it just depends. She can nap up to 2.5 hours at day care if they other kids are napping and no one wakes her up. But then Sat she can be up after an hour and half. All a crap shoot. Never know what I am going to get either place. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736255 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 13:59:45 +0000 lawbee11 1736255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Way way way better at home. Naps at home are guaranteed...not so much at daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736250 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 13:58:54 +0000 PurplePeony 1736250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Home, for sure. It's rare for her to nap as long as an hour at daycare (usually 40-50 minutes) but at home she regularly sleeps for an hour and 15 minutes up to an hour and 45 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736232 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 13:55:01 +0000 Adira 1736232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Xander sleeps better at home. I think because it's quieter. He tends to sleep 2-3 hours total for us at home during the day, whereas at daycare, he usually only sleeps 1.5 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-better-at-home-or-daycare#post-1736226 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 13:53:55 +0000 jetsa 1736226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS sleeps better at daycare.</p> <p>At daycare, he takes a 30 min - 1 hour nap in the AM, then a 1.5 - 3 hour afternoon nap, and then probably half the time 15 mins on the way home.</p> <p>At home we're doing good to get three 30-45 min naps, a lot of times its 2 naps at home as well. He's never napped more than 90 minutes for me! </p>
