Separation anxiety normally begins from 6 to 7 months or even earlier for other babies. For the first few days, your baby may become fussier than usual and it may be difficult to soothe him. It will all pass. Babies need time to adapt to new environments and people. You could talk to him constantly and reassure him that you will definitely be back to pick him up. Include a piece of worn clothing which has your smell so your baby can smell it to soothe himself or his favourite pillow or toy to remind him of home so it'll be easier to pass time in infant care. After he becomes familiar with the teachers and place, you'll find it a lot easier to leave him in infantcare. http://sg.theasianparent.com/helping-your-child-deal-with-separation-anxiety/
