Anyone else have a 1 year old (or around that age) who eats better at Daycare/babysitter than at home?

I swear, Jordan eats like a genius at his babysitter's house! We both figure it's because he's around other (older) babies/kids, is interested in eating what they are eating, and wants to be a big kid with them
At home, he will literally eat two bites sometimes and then start throwing his food.

Anyone else in the same boat?

Raising my hand here!! By the time I pick Mason up from daycare and get him home he's a little cranky so he doesn't want to sit for dinner. I try and distract him with the TV... I know

Whatever works to get him to sit and eat. At school he sits nicely with his class and will eat b/c that's what everyone is doing and they're on such a schedule. At home it's another story.

Not at daycare, but when my 2 year old is eating with her older siblings (age 6, 8 and 10) she eats like a champ! When she is alone or just with us, sometimes she doesn't want to eat at all, even though I know she's gotta be hungry.

Yes my girlfriends kid eats so much better at daycare then at home.
