Hello my name is Tia! Iโm 23 and I have been playing the sims since 2009! Iโm a TS3 only girl but occasionally I will repost TS4 content for inspo or just because I do consume the content vs actually playing it.
This is my TS3 side blog. Below are tags for content navigation as well as my main blog! ๐ค
This mod adds rabbithole daycare for babies and toddlers!
This is a script mod that can be placed in yourย Packagesย folder. It was built and tested on 1.69 but should work fine on 1.67.
Requirements
This mod requiresย The Sims 3: Ambitionsย to function.
Overview
Rabbithole Daycare
New Moodlets
Rabbithole Daycare
Babies and toddlers in their cribs have the option of sending themselves away for daycare.
All daycare options are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - including holidays!
Attending daycare will decrease a baby or toddlerโs Hygiene and Energy motives, but increase theirย Funย motive (unless they have the Lonerย trait).
Hygieneย will also decrease faster or slower if a baby or toddler has the Slobย orย Neatย trait, respectively.
Babies have one option for daycare calledย Little Sprouts Infant Care (ยง10/per hour)ย and will have their motives taken care of as needed.
Toddlers can go to basic daycare, where they will learn foundational skills like walking, talking, and potty training, or they can attend one of the specialized daycares that build hidden skills like painting and logic.
Specialized daycares require certain foundational skills before toddlers can enroll. They will also cost more per hour than basic daycare.
The household will be charged an initial fee, and then by the hour.
The full amount will be deducted from the household funds once the baby or toddler is finished with daycare.
Tiny Tots Daycare (ยง10/per hour)
Requirements: None
Skills Taught: Walking, Talking, and Potty Training
Imagination Station (ยง30/per hour)
Requirements: Must be potty trained and able to walk
Skills Taught: Painting, Sandbox (sculpting), and Xylophone (musical instruments)
Early Erudite Learning Center (ยง30/per hour)
Requirements: Must be potty trained and able to talk
Skills Taught: Charisma, Pegbox (logic), and Writing
Regardless of which option you choose, toddlers will have their motives taken care of as needed, and they will have a chance to meet other toddlers in the world.
After meeting other toddlers at daycare, toddlers can play with them to increase theirย Socialย motive and build friendships (unless they have the Lonerย trait).
Each time a toddler leaves daycare, they have a chance of getting either the positiveย Happy About Homeย buff or the negativeย Upset About Leavingย buff about going home.
New Moodlets
Happy About Home:ย Given when a toddler sim is happy after leaving daycare, lasts 4 hours, +20 mood
Upset About Leaving:ย Given when a toddler sim is upset after leaving daycare, lasts 4 hours, -20 mood
Tuning
All of the tunable values can be found on the mod download page under the headerย โTuning.โ
Mod Recommendations
I would recommend theย leave the baby home mod by climbingsideways to prevent the babysitter pop up if sims try to leave the lot while the baby or toddler is away at daycare.
Conflicts & Known Issues
This is a new script mod so there shouldnโt be any conflicts.

โค๏ธHere is the first version of the New Parents mod, I hope you guys enjoy it!
โค๏ธThe New Parents Mod adds more realistic pregnancy family-planning gameplay to The Sims 3. Sims can talk about starting a family, react emotionally to pregnancy news, discuss baby names, plan baby showers, ask loved ones to be godparents, involve children in the pregnancy, and host gender reveals.
Fathers and partners can react positively or negatively to pregnancy news. Some Sims may be excited to become parents, while others may feel overwhelmed, unsure, or scared. Prior family-planning conversations can affect how Sims react later if pregnancy happenโค๏ธNew Interactions:
Discuss Starting a Family
Tell About Pregnancy
Positive or negative pregnancy reactions
Relationship gains or losses based on reactions
Pregnancy-related buffs for both parents
Discuss Baby Names with boy and girl name suggestions
Plan Baby Shower with guest selection
Guests gift money for the baby
Ask Sims to be Godmother or Godfather
Ask Sims to be there for childbirth
Tell children they will be a big brother or sister
Ask guests to guess the babyโs gender
Cut Gender Reveal Cake interaction
Gender reveal reactions from parents and guests
Discuss the New Baby with supportive or dramatic responses
โค๏ธHow to Use
Click on another Sim and open:
New Parentsโฆ
From there, choose the interaction you want.
Use Discuss Starting a Family before pregnancy to set the tone for future reactions.
Use Tell About Pregnancy when a Sim is pregnant to trigger emotional reactions and buffs.
Use Plan Baby Shower while a Sim is pregnant to choose a location, guests, time, and outfit style.
Use Discuss Baby Names while pregnant to generate one boy name and one girl name suggestion.
Use Ask to Be Godmother/Godfather on adult Sims.
Use Ask to Guess the Babyโs Gender before cutting the gender reveal cake.
Place the Gender Reveal Cake and click it to use Cut Gender Reveal Cake. A popup will reveal whether the baby is a boy or girl.
Baby Showers last for 4 hours. Guests will bring gifts in the form of cash.
Hi guys! ๐Back again with a new animation mod! This is an absolutely gorgeous animation from the talented TS4 creator Simkatu (check out their Patreon, their work is truly amazing) who has graciously given me permission to convert some of their animations to TS3!
Working with custom animations has been a bit of a learning curve for me (but so much fun)! You guys know that i released my own first custom animation with the Flip Off mod a few months ago, and since then I have learned a lot more about custom animation conversion and creation. I have a few more conversions that I am wrapping up and will be releasing soon, as well as some simple ones that I have created myself.
The feet are a bit clipped (please don't flame me, im still learning! lol) But overall I think it turned out super cute!
๐The cry alone interaction is a self interaction. Using it provides a mood increase when your sim is done crying! It is autonomous (this can be toggled off) and happens mostly when your sim is sad or angry.
๐ If you also have my "Baddie Socials" mod installed, my "Pissed Off" and "About to Crash Out" moodlets are recognized by this mod, and sims with these moodlets are more inclined to cry alone.
๐Teen sims going through mood swings are also be more likely to cry alone autonomously.
๐How much mood increases is tunable via s3pe.
๐Translator Strings Attached -This is a custom script mod that should not conflict with any other mods. If it does conflict with any mods you have installed, please lmk and I will update this post. Hope you guys enjoy it! Are there any other animations you guys would like me to work on?
Releasing Thursday 7/30 @9am ET and publicly on 08/13 ๐

For years, the ocean only left quiet hintsโwhispers in the tide, fish lingering too close, and pale patterns across her skin that glowed faintly blue when the moon was full. Signs that something beneath the surface had always been waiting.
Now the sea no longer hides what she truly is. โก
