I currently mind a 10 mth old who has 2 short naps of 35/40 mins at 9:30 usually in the buggy or car en route to an activity & 1:30pm typically in the travel cot upstairs. This works well with school/nursery runs, mealtime etc and none of my other mindees nap so juggling sleep times hasn't been an issue so far.
However, I've got a new 1 yr old starting in 2 weeks & she has just one 2 hour sleep after a bottle around 11am. Ideally she'd go down in the cot for this long but I do a lunchtime nursery run plus sleeping in the morning will mean missing all our activities! Unfortunately most activities involve a car journey so even if she nodded off on the way home it would mean transporting sleeping child into buggy/cot once we got home so what do I do with the other baby & pre-schooler?
Sorry for the questions & I'm sure I'll figure it out but as you can probably tell I'm quite anxious about managing 2 babies plus 3 yr old for the first time and would really appreciate some guidance from you more experienced CM's :smile:
Many thanks
