should have switched childcare sooner

My oldest has had a tough year.  3 can be hard as it is, but he also has had medical issues and a new brother.  I switched jobs and started him at a place in September.  She was very negative and basically made me feel like my son was a chore to watch.  She also made me feel he was behind other kids (her words!)  She meant well, and I was hoping it would work out, but I couldn't take it anymore.  I just thought he was going through regular 3 year old testing boundary stuff.  I switched, and my sweet boy is back.  The current babysitter has nothing but great things to say about him.  I hadn't realized how much the old place was affecting him.
