LO starts daycare next week (eek!) and I'm worried about the nap situation. She'll be 11 mo at the end of the month, and she's starting in the pre-toddler room. Most of the kids are 12-16 mo in this room, and they are all on one nap. LO still is on 2 naps, and unless something goofy happens she really still needs that morning nap. They said she could still take 2 naps but that they would work on transitioning her (probably at 12 mo? that's when she can't sleep in a crib anymore and goes to a cot for naps). The thing is that she hates missing anything, she is not an on the go napper (unless it's in the car and she's super tired). If all the other kids are playing and they just put her in a crib in the corner she isn't going to nap. But she can't sleep in at all because I have to get her to daycare pretty early, a little after 7am due to my work. So I feel like she's going to be so tired!

Any advice from bees who had their LOs transition to 1 nap earlier than they would have otherwise due to daycare? I feel like she'll do one nap at daycare and 2 at home, she's in daycare MWF so that might be doable...
