There are sort-of threads on this before, but maybe not quite what I'm after.
Does anybody have any tricks/advice for settling in a child who didn't want you to go, but you did it (eventually) without tears?
I know the standard advice is just to dump them, kiss goodbye & run (to sounds of despairing wails, IME). I did that for 2 years with my son at nursery, and I'll never do it again. DD will be just 2.5yo when she's due to start 2 mornings/week at playgroup. I know she'll love the activities, routine/ceremony and people. Her big brother (4yo) will be there to anchor her, it's just being left without Mummy that will probably upset her! What can I do to coax her into staying happily?
