Hi, just wanted to say that kids love familiarity and as your son is settled at his present daycare he may be reluctant to embrace a change. But, at three he may be cannot envisage being somewhere new and equally great, so you're doing the right thing making it sound positive. After all, change is something we all have to get used to at least to a certain extent, and soon he will go through the school system with many changes ahead. But with your positive influence ( even if you have to fake it!), he will learn that it's ok to be nervous, but to look forward to meeting new friends and doing new stuff. Kids are very resilient, and hopefully, you will look back on your fears as he runs happily in to his new daycare, and wonder what you were ever concerned about! Good luck to you.
Jo
