Mother's intuition - or lack of it...

Today our mummy blogger Jane confessing to finding the nursery experience a little harder than her daughter...

My daughter started nursery when she was 18 months old. The settling-in process seemed to make a lot of sense on paper - the first day I would stay and play and we would leave after an hour. The next day would be a little longer. The third day we would stay for lunch and the fourth day I would leave her there, but return after an hour. Each day after that I would return an hour later.

The Flexibath is the brainchild of Danish designers, and is the first and only hard plastic chaildren's bath tub that folds up flat in seconds.
