I was working as a member of management at a Day Nursery and was in charge of the Baby Unit. Names have been changed.


    Background info
    Baby Victoria aged 10 months old, At fulltime nursery and needs to be held and rocked to  fall and stay asleep both at naptime and overnight.

    I met baby Vicky when she was 7 months old, a gorgeous little girl with a passionate fiesty spirit. Vicky was a  quiet observant little girl but if she was upset boy did we know about it.

Vickys mum had recently returned to to work and up until heading  back to work had been babywearing & breast fed  Vicky on demand.

    It was 12.55 and all 12 of my babies were fast asleep.
