a plan for separation would be making sure to have a conversation with whoever does drop off and tell them to explain to the child whats going to happen, even if it needs to be said every day consistency helps them adapt. Also I would hold and nurture the child while whoever does drop off says their goodbye, give them a few minutes to do so and reassure the child I'm there for them and will do whatever they need and will take good care of them.

The caregiver might want to talk to the parents about making sure that coming to school and being dropped of is not going to be a surprise for the child (this is harder for families of infants or young toddlers). Make sure that the child feels loved by the family member and to assure them that this is a temporary goodbye and that they will be back at the end of the day. When the parent is gone, comfort the child and reiterate that the goodbye is temporary and that they will see their family again at the end of the day. Let them know that they are safe and will be looked after at school.
