S.B.
I agree with what Kelly S said. someone should distract him after you said your goodbye! I used to babysit when I was a kid. Later I helped out in our church nursery, then worked for a daycare center. I have found that the one thing that helps is to have the same person meet him when you come in. If your son can talk and say his name, or how old he is, or what he likes. talking to him and asking him things gets his mind off mommy and sometimes helps to calm them down. Also a lot of hugs and somebody to hang with helps. He needs to know three things. One: that your are coming back, Two: That he will be ok, and Three: You will be fine. I tell you this because thats the three things my seven yr old son worries about whenever I leave him.
