Separation anxiety is very normal. My daughter cried too.. she was scared whenever we left her. But her teachers were very good and loving towards her, and after a while, she loved going to school:) On our part, we prepped her mentally for school every day. Small pep talks, playing little games like guessing what colour her teacher was wearing and seeing who was right when we dropped her off.. talking about school when we picked her up, and of course, giving her big hugs when we picked her up to show her that we love her and aren’t abandoning her.
