Daycare Pt. 1

There was a baby at the daycare who didn’t nap as long as the others and She hated it. I had developed a routine with him though and everything worked out pretty well. At the beginning of nap time, I’d give him one of his bottles and he’d fall asleep. (He was breast fed, so we were limited to usually 3 bottles everyday, and She would give him one in the morning before I got there.) He’d wake up 20 minutes later and I’d give him some quiet toys to keep him occupied in the pack n play while I cleaned. (She was back in her office doing “paperwork” this whole time.) Eventually he’d get fussy and I’d give him his last bottle. He’d fall asleep again and all was well.

Well, one day, for whatever reason She was late getting back to her “paperwork.” I gave the baby his bottle and he didn’t fall asleep instantly and got a bit fussy. She didn’t like it and told me to put his last bottle in the warmer. I told her, “I try to wait as long as the possible to give him the last one,” but she insisted. So I put it in the warmer, but unsurprisingly to me (because I actually spent this time with him everyday, She didn’t), by the time it was done he was asleep. So that bottle was wasted and I didn’t have one to give him when he was getting bored and impatient in the pack n play later on so he cried and obviously She got mad at me for that. 🤷‍♀️
