What do i pack for daycare???

Question

my 16 month old son starts daycare tomorrow what do i pack for him.....they prepare all meals and snacks

Answer 1

I think it depends on the school. My son has a "cubby" at his school, so i leave extra clothes there. I bring in a ton of diapers, diaper cream and wipes at once, and they let me know when he runs out, then i provide more. On Mondays I bring in a sheet and blanket (for naptime) and bring them home on Fridays to wash, then return on Monday. The only thing I bring in every single day are sippy cups. For a 7 hour day, I bring in 1 empty cup (for juice or milk provided by the school) and 2 water cups. My son loves water, and the school does not have a brita or any kind of filter. That's it. When he was using a pacifier, I would do the same with as the sheets, bring it in on Monday, leave it there all week, take it home Friday and return it on Monday. My son's school provides lunch and nutritious snacks. Oh, and it's a good idea to label EVERYTHING! Especially sweatshirts/jackets. I've gone home with the wrong sweatshirt in our bag twice!

Answer 2

All day cares are different so you may want to get a list from them.  The basics are diapers, wipes, and a change of clothes.  Some day cares ask you to bring a sippy cup, a sheet and/or blanket for his mat that he naps on, his own nap mat if they don't supply them, and I'm sure there are a few other things I'm forgetting.  You really need to ask the daycare.  

Answer 3

Blanket or special pillow

Extra clothing

   -shirt

   -pants

   -socks

Diapers at least 2, if it is half day. or 4 for all day

Coat

Baby Wipes

and really the Preschool should have the rest!!!

Answer 4

a full change of clothing (pants, shirt, socks, shoe, underwear, all with your child's name in them), blanket, sheet (crib sized), pillow and pillowcase (all with their name on it), maybe a lovey for nap time, a family picture.

Answer 5

My 16 month old daughter goes off to daycare tomorrow as well.  He will need diapers, wipes, a change of clothes  (just in case), a blanket, and any other special lovey.  My daycare will also let you bring in a disposable camera to capture funny moments and a sippy cup if you think he might need a certain brand.
