8 month old not setteling at childminder

[Bigbouncingbaby]

Question is how long do u leave it . He only goes one full day a week . Mum has DS the other two. My daughter is mainly at nursery and my mum.
He seems to just be crying all day which is very unlike him ...she has says she is happy to carry on but doesn't want him to be upset. If he does more than one day not gonna be worth working.

I have a few options I could maybe work two longer days and one shorter maybe put him in my daughters nursery two mornings a week instead of one day. I love her nursery .... Never just been sure of babies and nurseys. Or should I just stick with childminder .

She has been sweet and offered me a few hours on a day I don't work to help but it's a ten mile round trip , a bit extra money and I don't want to loose him on a none work day :(

My daughters childminder I loved straight away and trusted her. This childminder is really nice but I don't get same feeling . She also has an 18 month old and her daughter who is 20 months . Does school runs for ger two older sons ...

It's harder for them to settle when they only go one day a week.

Could you send him for a few days a week, just while he's settling? Maybe a few hours on the other two days you work so he gets a chance to bond with the childminder.

Yes maybe I might text her and ask if she could ....see if she is full or not . Im sure it's not her ... Just his age and like u say once a week is a long time to wait ....
