It was harder to leave him there than I thought it would be. There was more than one crying baby in the room. Henry was looking around like, “What’s with all the noise?” So was I, frankly. Unlike before I had the baby, however, I understood that most of those babies were crying for a need (hunger, sleep, changing, etc.) and I realized those teachers are all there to meet those needs as quickly as possible. They seemed to be doing a good job of staying focused and on task.<\/p>\n
I was able to check on him via in-room video cameras during the day. They’re very low resolution but if you know what he’s wearing, you can spot him. <\/p>\n

I was debating trying to obscure the images of the adults and the other children in this room, but I thought, why bother? You can’t see anything anyway! If you are immediate family and you were excited about getting access to the video cameras, I’d get less excited about it. It’s [obviously] hard to see and the technology takes a little fiddling with to get it to work. <\/p>\n
All in all, I’m happy that he’s in daycare. I think it’s good for him in more than one way. He learns how to be cared for by new people, he gets socialization, he gets exposed to germs, etc. It was a little tough starting this week, but now that the week is halfway over, I’m feeling more comfortable and confident. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
