Mothers meeting- i didnot mean grooming yourself-apart form the odd haircut- but my children found nursery quite hard to get used to, and because of all the tears I jsut had to go with it. But I did do all the house things like painting/ ironing / making curtains/ filing so that when I was was working I did not have to worry about that. You are very lucky if your child will go to any one anytime- I was always called from creches at ikea/ asda after 5 mins and found the consistency of a nursery helpful, especially if I got more work I could sometimes add a few extra days which is a godsend.
