Hi, although I'm not new to Gransnet, I don't normally post on here, but read it every day and absolutely love all your topics and comments as they're all so relevant to my life and experiences. I agree that you all sound so nice, sensible and supportive. I've looked after my dgd1 aged nearly 3 since she was 6months old and nap time after lunch for an hour or so is so important. Gives me a much needed break to catch my breath, have a cup of tea and her a chance to recharge her batteries for the rest of the day. We don't always get that now, so by 4/5pm she's overtired and fractious and so is her nana. Then you're into the time of day when it would interfere with her bedtime if she sleeps then. By the time she's picked up at 5.30 or 6pm, I'm certainly ready for bed! Love the time I have with her and we're very close, but it is hard going sometimes.
