This is very good advice. I wish I knew all this when my children were younger. They’re all intact (4 of them) and we figured it all out by about number 3 but it’s really tough for first time parents.

Hi Jen,
There are a few things to consider with your child’s difficulties in regards to sleeping through the day/ night.
Some things to consider are:
How long has your child been attending the centre?
The number of days your child attends?
Your childs age?
What is the norm for his age/ stage of develoopment?
Is your son using any comforters during the day to relax/calm him?
If your child sleeps at the centre is this consistant?
How long is the sleep/ rest period of the daily routine at the centre ?
Is the environment calm and soothing to set the mood for a relaxing atmosphere, to help aid the sleep & relaxation time in the centre?
For more information,I would advise you to discuss all your concerns with your child’s educators and they should be able to provide you with some more advice & sleep/ settling information.
Goodluck and I wish you all the best.

Hahah…funny reaction, Anne! But I do understand how you feel - it can be really daunting hiring your first babysitter. All the questions and concerns. But, there are amazing people out there who love children and want to be part of a family doing something they love. It also gives you (and grandma!) more flexibility.
One thing that many parents may not think about is actually how the babysitters can bring new experiences and skills to your child(ren). So many of our candidates have wonderful skills from teaching new languages, musical abilities, sporting experience, swim qualifications and even drama and arts!
Martha - thanks for your comments! Most sitters completely understand the “parent dash” - I mean, it’s so infrequent that we actually get any time away! Of course we’re excited! As long as you take the time to appreciate them when you come home - they’re happy. 
Mei
