Dts have just started nursery, they are 3 and only go for the 15 funded hours.
Is it normal for them to not want to go ?
They say themselves that they enjoy it there and they always have fun. They seem happy snd settled when I pick them up.
Its not just that they get upset when I drop them off, but when ever nursery is mentioned. They get a bit emotional and say they don't want to go.
It's only been 2 weeks, but I feel bad for them
. I am new to this as I have been a Sahm for the past 3 years.
I know it sounds silly and precious, but I just feel a bit urgh about it.

This sounds very normal to me. It is a big change for them, possibly the only big change they have been through? They are still learning to cope with the emotions of being in a new place without you. It's great that they say they enjoy it, and that they have fun at nursery.
