#1: I would talk to Mom about it. Ask her to wean him off of that at home because its making his adjustment to daycare difficult. If he expects her to do it, he will expect you to do it.

#2: I would just redirect him. And if your boy is in the same room, maybe place a a barrier like a gate or something between #2 and your infant in the swing, bouncy, etc. Teach him gentle touch like hugging, high fives, etc.
