Baby won’t sleep ifc

My baby has been going to ifc for 1 month. She’s currently 5 months. In the app the teachers only update 1 nap per day. I’m not sure what’s going on I have raised it up but she still does not sleep. I’m really worried. In the evenings she would take 1 hour to sleep because she is exhausted. At home on weekends she is okay to take naps. I’m not sure why she is having difficulty in school. I don’t rock her to sleep by the way I just tap her and the teachers know this. Help is this normal should I get upset they are not trying to help her sleep or what can I do? Any tips moms SOS

Hi mummy! I understand your worries and anxiety. But do understand that even we as adults need time to get used to change, what more a baby being placed in a different environment, away from her comfort zone. She's entering a totally different world, much different than what she's used to for the past four months. Babies in ifc also sleep at different times, so the noise and crying a might affect her ability to sleep and the quality of sleep. It's only been a month, and it might take a few more weeks or even months for baby to settle in to the new routines in school. With these changes, her behaviour or routine at home might change too. The change might seem Small for us, but it's huge for them. Remember that they are still so young. So please be a bit more patient with the teachers as I'm sure they are also trying their best. You can check in with them by texting them via the app, or talking to them during pickup/drop off. Ask them if there's also anything you can do at home to facilitate the change.
