School drop off has become very difficult. What do we do?

My 5.75yo daughter has started to develop some really big separation anxiety since returning from winter break. She has experienced a couple of transitions with a new nanny, and I went out of town last weekend. But now I am back and today was 25 minutes of crying at school for my goodbye. Each day seems worse and worse. What do we do?

I am struggling with my children's sleep and letting them know the nanny is leaving. Helpo!

I would love some sleeping advice. My oldest child 5.5yo and my youngest 2.5yo share a room at night. They each have their own bed. They fall asleep fairly normally… book, tucked in, rub back, fall asleep, I sneak out.
Somewhere around 11:45pm-2am my youngest will call me in to put the blanket on her, or my oldest will come and get me to rub her back or snuggle. This will continue through the night.
We are also in search of a new nanny. How do we tell our children?

My 4yo son is great at school drop off with dad but not with me. What should I do different?

When my 4yo son goes to school with his father, he walks right into the school/classroom, but when he goes to school with me, it has taken up to 30 minutes (usually like 10/15 minutes) to get him inside the classroom. He has always been more attached to me. His main reason for not wanting to go inside the classroom is because he wants to be with me. He has used the word scared, but I don’t think he’s scared in the traditional sense of the word. Thanks!
