DS1 always napped better at daycare, but DS2 naps terrible at school! He will sleep for an hour at a time at home (dark room, white noise) but 15 minutes at a time at daycare. No clue how to fix it, but he is exhausted. 
If your LO goes to daycare, do they nap better at home?

DD used to sleep better at daycare, but at around a year that switched. Now she naps for 2 1/2 hours at home, and half that at daycare. After getting used to a long nap all summer with me being home, she's now exhausted going back to daycare. It's affecting our nights too.

@LemonJack: boo. It's so hard because there is nothing much you car do to help them when they are there!

DS is 12 months and hopefully starting daycare soon. I'm so worried about this because he is SUCH a high maintenance napper! We have to have really loud white noise, blackout curtains in his room, sleep sack, rock to sleep... ugh. I have heard kids adjust though!

@MrsADS: sounds like my kiddo.

My almost 5 year old still naps at daycare but gave up naps at home around 2.5. My 2 year old naps at daycare for about 1.5-2 hours but in the past few weekends we have given up on trying anymore. I don't have the energy to fight out it and we just try to do an earlier bedtime. My 4 month old takes about 3-4 cat naps at daycare but sleeps fabulously at night and then spends a lot of time on Saturday sleeping.

I would say at home! She naps pretty well at school but usually never longer than how long she can nap at home.
-
Home for sure although it's gotten a lot better since she started in a toddler classroom where they all nap at the same time.
-
Definitely preschool! I don't know how they do it - she refuses to sleep at home.

LO1 is better at school - she usually naps 1.5-2hrs there, but hardly ever naps at home. LO2 just started daycare this week and is napping terribly, but I'm hoping he will get better at it.
