I need to take DD to daycare tomorrow
and don't have anyone to watch the baby, so I have to bring them both. This will be the 1st time I'm taking them both out at the same time alone.
DD is 18 months and can do the stairs ok (there are 3 flights ) and I will have DS in the carrier (he's 2 weeks). I'm not sure how I'm going to get them both up all the stairs by myself.
Also, I don't really want to bring him into the center (fear of germs, etc) but I can't see leaving him in the car alone.
Any suggestions? My brain is off due to lack of sleep

Re: I need to take DD to daycare tomorrow
Can you call the center ahead of time and ask if there is a way someone can come and help you? I can understand not wanting to bring DS into the center. However, if you have to, can you stand in the doorway or is it something where you have to go all of the way into the room?

I was going to say the same thing. Maybe one of DD's teachers can come to the front of the school and take her back into her classroom.

I was going to give the same advice. My sister has the same situation and she called the daycare ahead of time and they met her at her car and took my nephew out of the car and into the daycare and when it was time to go home they did the same. I am sure they will accomodate you.

Re: I need to take DD to daycare tomorrow
Thanks! I'm sure someone would come out and meet me, however the routine with my DD is that I come in get her settled and stay with her while she eats breakfast. A routine I would have reconsidered if I thought about what it means now LOL.
I'm just nervous not coming in with her since so much has already changed. Maybe i'll break out the Bjorn and try that.
Do you think it will ok as long as nobody touchs him?

I'd definately put him in the bjorn, plus he will be little enough that no one will be able to touch him/see him in there.

Definitely do the bjorn and have her walk up the stairs.
Good Luck

Can you use a baby bjorn or sling? That sounds best for stairs leaving your two hands free for your older one.

Re: I need to take DD to daycare tomorrow
Do you have a Baby Bjorn or a sling you can put DS in so you can have a hand free for DD?
Also this will help keep him away from the germs.

Re: I need to take DD to daycare tomorrow
I would call and ask for help. I had to when dh broke his leg- I would put her in the car, he would drive her, then they would come get her out of the car.
