If playing white noise near her on a device (supplied by us or the day
care) is possible that might help. She also likes to snuggle with one of
her bears during nap time at home. I do not think having a bear there is
practical but perhaps giving her Khadijah (she is in her back pack) might
help.

Let us know what you think.

Thank you,
