DS is 9.5 months old and in daycare 3-4 days a week. He is a bad napper at home and at daycare, but at least at home we have a little control. On days that he's home he takes 2 naps usually with the first 45 min in his crib and another 45 being held, more or less on a 2-3-4 schedule. Today at daycare he took a 15 minute nap and a 40 minute nap both before 12:30 and didn't nap at all the rest of the day. Sadly this is typical. This morning I asked that they please try and have him take an afternoon nap. Clearly that didn't happen.

I'm thinking of asking them to put him down at specific times (9 and 2) - is this a terrible idea? I'd love to nap train him but there just isn't enough consistency between home and daycare. Maybe if we have set nap times that are the same all days it would help? Thoughts?
