I wonder if you could snap your the baby carrier into a snap n go and still carry your older one until she's a more confident walker. Even at 19 months now, I still carry DS some days. Since there are some mornings he will try to run away or throw himself on the floor when we get there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-daycare-drop-off-logistics-with-more-than-one-lo#post-706954 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 08:14:59 +0000 purrpletulips 706954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When DS was born DD was 2 1/2 so she walked into daycare by herself while I carried DS in the infant seat. What I've seen others do (if the older LO isn't walking yet) is put the littlest in a stroller and carry the older one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-daycare-drop-off-logistics-with-more-than-one-lo#post-706941 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 08:10:31 +0000 mamabolt 706941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have more than one LO but I see a lot of other parents at my daycare who do! It seems the most popular option is a snap and go type stroller or carrying the infant seat while the other LO walks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-daycare-drop-off-logistics-with-more-than-one-lo#post-706928 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 08:04:27 +0000 Honeybee 706928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't have much of a walk (home daycare, so we just parked in the driveway), but when the kids were little I often carried DD and the baby seat. I didn't usually wear DS for that kind of drop off because 1) it was so fast/ quick and 2) once we got into the daycare I had to help DD take off her shoes, put her things in her cubby, etc..., which was difficult to do with a baby strapped to my front. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-daycare-drop-off-logistics-with-more-than-one-lo#post-706827 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 07:01:30 +0000 SAHM0811 706827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we walked to daycare, DD1 would walk, scooter or ride in the stroller. DD2 was usually worn in a Beco Gemini... Sometimes the baby was in the stroller and the older one walked. </p> <p>I think we were usually in a rush though, so DD1 in a stroller and DD2 in a carrier was the fastest option... Should work for you well too I think! How far do you have to walk... Parking lot to daycare? I hate parking lots but my kids hold hands or stay close well. I carry my 21 month old mostly though or she'll run around.</p> <p>We have "carline" at DD's preschool :) thank goodness! We just pull up and a teacher gets DD1 and walks her to her classroom. DD2 stays in the car! So easy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-daycare-drop-off-logistics-with-more-than-one-lo#post-706790 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 06:38:27 +0000 autumnlove 706790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO will be attending daycare this summer part time when I am on maternity leave. DH will handle most of the drop offs but I will have to take her when he works a certain shift. </p> <p>We live in the suburbs and drive to daycare. The new baby will be around 6 weeks old when I need to drop off LO (who will be 16 months) in the morning. She is a cautious walker right now and we still carry her into the center...but maybe she will start walking like crazy in a month? I hope... :-)</p> <p>Do you usually just hold the baby, or carry the baby in the infant seat, baby wear or use a stroller when you drop off one child at daycare? </p>
