If you bring your child to daycare?

I am getting ready to go back to work in a few weeks after what will be a 15 week maternity leave.
I have started to make a list of things I need to bring to the daycare. Can you help me make a list of items that are a must have at daycare and things you have found helpful to supply for them.

Thank you for your help!!!!!

2 crib sheets
2 blankets
bibs- unless they supply them
wipes, diapers..I always just left a case of diapers and 2-3 packages of wipes. I hate bringing things back and forth
Not sure if you are BF or not..so I cannot advise on what to bring for food
I used to pump BM so I brought enough bottles for my daughter each day PLUS I had 2 bags of BM in their freezer just in case she needed extra
2 extra outfits inc. socks

I HIGHLY suggest that the week before you go back to work you start to bring your daughter for a few hours every day. You can use the time to nap, run errands...cry. It is easier to start the transition when you are not going to work. Then when you go back to work ask if you can leave at 3pm for the first week. Not sure if they will allow it but IMO that really helps when you transition rather than just do it all at once.
And remember..that you will cry and miss your baby and question every decision about daycare. You might feel overwhelmed. That is all NORMAL. HUGS
