young and experiencing their first separation from their mothers.  


OK, something is wrong here.  The childcare provider is being spoken to by the counselor of one of the children's *siblings*?  If this counselor is counseling a sibling, not the toddler him/herself, the counselor has no business making assumptions about the toddler based on what the sibling is telling the counselor.  And there are huge issues of confidentiality here.  The counselor should not even be telling the childcare provider that she is working with the sibling.  Seems to me like the counselor is widely overstepping.
