slow to warm up temperament.

Explanation:

Each child has their own unique approach to the world and this is referred to as temperament.

Most children are shy which is usually referred to slow to warm up which means they take time before they can warm up to a new environment or situation or they take precautions before they act around an unfamiliar environment or people. You can see them by refusing to be with anyone but only those that they know such as their moms.

These kids usually don't warm up to a new nanny so fast and also when they go to creches it may take time for them to get used to that environment and may need to be introduced slowly before they can attend it full time.
