A day here

What actually happens

A rough shape rather than a timetable. Babies sleep when they need to, and some days we are out for most of it.

The bits parents actually ask about

Screens

Almost none. Occasionally a song or something we are looking up together. Never as a way of filling an afternoon.

Weather

We go out in it. Send wellies and a waterproof and everyone has a better day.

Fussy eating

Food is offered, never forced, and we eat the same thing at the same table. Most of it sorts itself out within a term.

Settling in

Two weeks, starting with you staying, then short stretches on their own. We go at your child's pace, not the calendar's.
