My son has been attending nursery for 2 years. He moved in to a new room couple of months ago and his behaviour has completely changed. He has odd tantrum at home esp if tired, but at the nursery he is a different child- biting , pinching, smacking the other children and staff. Hes spitting at the manager, Ive never seen him spit. The nursery suggested I get health visitor to watch him there. She came to see him at home first and said he was a delightful child, she couldnt see any behavioural problems in him and said there was no point her visiting him at the nursery, it was the nursery that's the problem. i do have reservations about the nursery, they are usually made to watch tv or left to do "free play" they rarely go outdoors and dont have a routine. staff too are quite young and dont look happy to be there. When I take him kids play areas he is fine with the other kids. The nursery are now calling me at work demanding i pick him up as they cant cope! Any advice?

well, at first i thought the problem was your son, but the more i read of your details the more i figured out EXACTLY what you KNOW....you need to change his nursery school mom!!! seriously, this is not a good environment for your son and i am SURE these problems will stop as soon as you find a caring and nurturing environment for him.
take care and PLEASE do this. he should be going outside, reading books, singing songs, dancing, playing with the other kids, coloring, participating in activities, art projects, etc. this is what my son does at his daycare...and he's 1. there shouldn't even BE a tv at your nursery.
take care.

If you have even a hint of reserve about the nursery why are you sending him there? If this is how theyre treating him around you, or what theyre admitting to you (they cant handle him and he's out of control) imagine what little things are happening that you're not aware of.
I'd get a nanny. Nursery schools are known for CAUSING social and behavior problems, not developing good behavior. Nannies have the best interest of the child in mind, and act as mom when mom is not there. Unlike nurseries which only provide supervision, and some basic schooling at best.
Its not worth it to risk the development and possible emotional abuse of your child just to get a days work in, and not deal with it. Take him out, get a nanny, and then get on with it.
Those places are horrid.

Yale baby learn middle has an marvelous e book/handbook out that deals with each and every thing you ought to renowned. Adults biting infants is purely incorrect, i do no longer care if it labored or no longer. My son is 7 now and did a similar component. He bit himself, and us at that age. We did no longer chew decrease back, and he stopped purely a similar.Dicipline, even at a million a million/2, is very important. It demands self administration from the discern, yet another studying time for baby, and periodic time outs. in straightforward terms consistency with effect will practice your baby the genuine which skill of why he can not chew himself or others. the quick technique of 'biting decrease back' by a caregiver no longer in straightforward terms does not practice appreciate, even though it relatively is abusive.

I'd pull him from that daycare center NOW! They have decided he's a "bad kid" and they are never going to give him a chance....also, if you have a feeling go with it.
I am opposed to a large daycare in a child so young.....they a too little to have the stress of getting up everyday and following the rat race....if you can afford better I would.
I'd do a nanny or a smaller home daycare.

It sounds like any option is better than the nursery he is in now. He isn't happy there and he is being as clear as he can about it.
Trust your instinct and the health visitor that nursery isn't any good.

My nephew did that, found out later that it was because a worker had been mean to him, grabbed his arm tightly and tugged at him. He was fine before, but one person messed it up and he had to be moved to another place.
