Got a 14mo who either needs to go back to daycare in 2 weeks (just paid our deposit) or we need to somehow scramble for a nanny. Northeast NJ. SO needs to teach in school, no virtual option for staff. I’m so much more emotional now than I ever was when she first went to daycare last year. It was hard to be home with her but I’m so nervous and the school district doesn’t seem prepared. Have a fam member w/C19 in critical condition so I’m extra sensitive.

My daughter is 4 years old and I just let her go back a few hours a week before school starts bc she’s so lonely... she’s one of two kids there so I’m ok with it but I’m not thrilled with the safety measures.
I’ve been trying to get my daughters school to implement air monitoring and/or a sterilization treatment my company has been working on (I’m in the Covid science space) and the regional director won’t even reply to me offering a free Viral Index air monitor to test it out. It’s the cheapest, easiest thing they could do to proactively monitor risk. It’s mind blowing.
Send me your directors name and I’ll have one of our sales guys give them a call about treatments and monitoring. 😃

I’m in the same boat! I have a 15 month old and my husband is a teacher needing to go back to school next week. We are planning to put her back into daycare because we don’t have any other full time options! She’s starting to get clingy with me and I know she needs it but both of them in school all day makes me super nervous, more than when I put her in before last year and returned to work after mat leave. Am also newly pregnant again so am super aware of the risks all around and not happy about it.

My last therapist keeps coming up in my mind. I left her when I moved to a new area before COVID dug in and frankly it felt like leaving a girlfriend. She also disclosed in the final session that she was a member of AA and knew several of the people I occasionally discussed from the rooms. Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?
