Infant care

Monday(27 Sept 10) was my first day in infant-care@Cherie Hearts. It's located a stone throw from Mummy's new office.

We reached the centre at around 9.30am. It was my first encounter seeing so many kids around. Mummy started with the registration and dictating my habits to the teacher-in-charge, Katherine while i was doing my bits exploring with daddy by my side. I got to know a few little friends. There were Miguel(Portuguese)&Serra&Vishva[toddler] and Liam&Ariel[baby]. The toddlers were all around my age but two of them, Miguel and Serra, were on half days only. By noon, i was left to play with only the babies and Vishva. Rather lonely i suppose. I stayed till about 3pm before heading home. It was a common practice to pick up infants/kids earlier on their first day.

On the second day, i did a bit of crying when i realize Mummy is missing. Teacher Liz and Teacher Ho coax me with toys and food to distract me. I submitted and stopped crying. Later that morning, a boy named Josh came. I realized he was my age too. I was delighted having a new playmate but unfortunately he was sick. His parents got a letter from the doc to certify him fit for infant-care so he was here. However, the truth is he wasn't fit at all. He was having runny nose and quarantine to a corner of the room. Hope he get well soon to play with me. At around 5pm, Daddy came and i couldn't help myself. I was crying and crawling fast towards him. Daddy was heartbroken.

Today is the third and last day Mummy is allowed to stay in the centre with me. But i'm sure she will be dropping by often. I know Mummy also could't bear to leave me there and i will be good not to make her worry.
