I recently seperated from my partner and had to put my triplets in daycare.

I'm sure the ASA and June Cleaver woudl disapprove, but we used bribery. There was a particular type of little bite-sized brownie, which Peter loved, but only (ever) got in daycare when he was sitting down

Hmm, wish I had paula's idea at the time.

Really depends on the kiddo and why he is melting. Could be the new place, etc, the separation. Perhaps it will just take him a little longer to adjust. Can you get thier a little early and stay with him for a while to help the transition time? That worked with my ASD ds at that age. The first week I stayed almost the whole time of preschool then slowly cut back until I was just dropping. He also found an adult there that he really liked and attached too.

Maybe some sort of transitional security item from you? It is tough all around. Big hugs to you.
