A separation, even if it takes place calmly, can be terribly stressful. It is important that as parents, you put your child’s interest first during this trying time. You are absolutely right in deciding that, for the moment, it is better for your toddler to sleep at home with their mom.
Your child is in a phase of development marked by the anguish of separation. The children begin to feel this anxiety between 7 and 12 months and this can continue until the age of 2, 2 and a half years. Children feel the anguish of separation when the person they receive the most attention for (usually their mom) walks away. Your child will be less anxious if his mother is not there and is with his father rather than with another adult. But a baby can be in a more delicate mood at the end of the day and it is better to be with his mother, in his own room, with his favorite objects, to fall asleep quietly.
Respect the rhythm of your child. When he feels comfortable enough to take a nap at home, you can let him sleep at night Take all his favorite toys as well as all the objects you can carry and that will reassure him, including his blanket. If you find that he is anxious or has trouble sleeping when he spends the night outside home, wait another month or two and try again.
