Calm corner

When nursery drop-off is breaking your heart

When you cry the whole way back to the car.

  1. 1

    Their tears do not mean it's the wrong place.

  2. 2

    They are allowed to feel sad. So are you.

  3. 3

    Take three slow breaths before you start the engine.

  4. 4

    Tonight you'll be back together. Today is one day.

You do not have to be perfectly calm to help. Just a little steadier than a moment ago.
