[blparent] Leaving a Toddler for Several Nights

One thing that tends to help is to read a book on CD or something that she
can hear when ever she misses other you. Otherwise bring some things she
loves at home, and know you will be more upset than her. Hope it works out
fine.

Hi.  Circumstances have come up that have given me no choice but to leave
Sarah with a family friend for about five days and five nights while her dad
and I go out of town.  The sitters are completely trustworthy, so I'm not
worried about that at all, but I've never left her for nearly that long.
Two nights has been the max.  I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to
make this easier on Sarah.  Have any of you had to do this, and what helped?
Or maybe it's only me who's worrying too much, and she'll be unphased by the
whole thing.  Thanks for anything you all can offer, this list really is a
helpful resource.
