Pregnant and think I am going to go off on my son?s daycare!

Ok I use to love my  daycare  My son has been there for a year now he is 2 and now I am pregnant with our second child and having second thoughts as to do I want to keep them there when the second baby comes. His transitions from class to class have been great until now. He was 75% potty trained until he went to this new class. Now he is having accidents every day.  now when I drop him off he is crying kicking and screaming He hates the two  teachers that are there with him in the morning so I am thinking of changing my work schedule to see if that will work for him. I do not know if it is my hormones or what but it is just getting on my last nerve! I never complain at all and I had a conversation with the director about his ?scheduled accidents? every morning when I specifically tell them to put him on the potty. I know I am not paying you to potty train my child but I am paying you to stay on his dang schedule! Its just all getting to me what should I do: look for a new daycare, change my schedule, have a meeting with the director? IT  has only been two weeks but you would think after two weeks he would be ok with them.

  • I think you might be expecting too much.  They have a lot more kids than just your DS and "his" schedule might not work for everyone.  I'm sure they have a potty schedule and put him on the potty according to that schedule.

    When is he having an accident?  Do you take him potty when you drop him off?

    As kids get older, transitions are going to be harder.  It's going to take longer for the kids to adapt to a new setting and new teachers. 

    ETA: DD is at an in-home center.  The DPC has a new assistant that has been there for almost 2 months now.  DD still has a hard time with it.  It took her FOREVER before she would let the assistant help her go potty.

  • I would think not only talking with the director but also the teachers to understand what is going on in the classroom.  I can understand your frustration.  I have had similar with my daycare.  But if you don't communicate with them it is difficult for them to make it better.  I would hold off changing your schedule for a little bit so that you can see if the behavior can be modified by the facility.

    See my problem with this is that "his" schedule is what they follow and yes I do make sure he potty's when I drop him off everyday and they know this and the whole daycare knows it. the teacher to child ratio is 3 to 1 so for me there is no excuse even other teachers say this because I do not complain and this is the first time I have said anything to to anyone because I am a VERY flexible person. My issue is that If I ask you to do something  continuous  everyday and let you know that he did not go potty when mommy took him so he will defiantly go in the next 30 minutes  Then you should do it  we have a long commute so I know and they know he will go he has an accident at the same time everyday so something is wrong. I Know I may be letting my hormones get the best of me but I am going to wait until the end of the week to see if anything changes.
