I am looking for a nursery where both mom & child are allowed to go since I cannot trust my child with any stranger at the age of 1 & 8 months plus I want him to be social with other children at the same time :)

A good nursery will not allow you to stay with your child. I was a nursery teacher for years and dealt with many children with separation anxiety and trust me when I say that the mothers are the ones who make it more difficult. He will cry every day until he is settled in. The secret is to leave him only for a short period of time (1 hour) every day until he realizes you come back for him every time. Then you start increasing those periods. If you are there with him, separation anxiety will worsen. Once he gets used to the idea that you come back to fetch him every time you will see a huge difference. Be strong and do it for your child. If you need any further help just pm me.

Hmmmmn ....... at present I am taking him regularly to Fun City in City Center for an hour ... if not daily then once in two days. But these days I have noticed that if he plays with a certain toy & any other child comes around he leaves that toy & runs to me. I hope he doesnt have stranger anxiety.

Btw Housewife .... if you know of any such nurseries where they allow the mom in until the child settles down, it will be of great help to me.

onsciouseffort, try to find some playgroups instead, there you can be present, and you baby gets to socialize.

mums in Doha have them, and expatwoman too, I think.

If not, you can fins info about it on the expatwoman board.

Your child will never learn to socialize with others if you are with him or if he knows that you are around. I don't think that you would find a place where the mom and child are accommodated, however there are certain Nurseries which allow the mothers stay untill the child settles down well but, I am not quite sure for how long.

Cheers

If the baby is just 1.8months old better not to take him/her to any nursery.

but make the mother speak with her/him the maximum at home and play with the baby maximum at home when the dad is out for work and then slowly when the baby is 2.6 u can try in a good nursery by leaving the baby along with mother also for few (may be 1 hr and the 2nd day 2 hrs)hours and by then the baby will enjoy the company of other babies of the same age and the caretakers.

I am a mother of a baby boy....telling from my experience...

Make sure you get a good nursery but I doubt good nurseries would appreciate mothers hanging round! Good luck in finding one!
