Help with child being sick!

Need some advice from you wise people as I am at a loss. We have a child who has started with us this term, He comes one morning a week and is dropped by Granny/Grandad as parents are working. on his first morning Mum left and the child was upset and could not be comforted or distracted. He was sick once and then would not be tempted into the playroom. I phoned home and asked for someone to come and help settle him. Grandad arrived and the child was then happily distracted and did manage to join in with a large group story at the end of the morning. Mum did then think to tell us that he does make himself sick when he wants too!! His second session he seemed to settle quickly but then at 10:30 had a bump when he fell from a ride on toy. This obviously upset him again and he could not be comforted and my staff called Grandad who arrived to take him home. (I was away on this day) His third session he was happy for 45 minutes and then suddely for no reason became upset and was sick twice. After this there was no distracting him and he fell asleep on the door mat. We tried moving him to the cosy corner but he woke up and freaked out again. Last week the same thing happened, he was happy and settled and after 45 minutes was sick again and then took himself to the door mat, would not be comforted or distracted and would not let us move him.( have to say we are all very reluctant to push it too much as there is only so much sick that you can deal with in one morning) He then went to sleep until home time. My play leader has had a conversation with Granny who just laughs and says his Dad was just like it right through to comprehensive school. My first thought is that just because Dad was like it the family should not just accept this as normal behaviour and should talk to a doctor or health visitor. Secondly I am unsure what to do next to help this little chap as he is currently getting nothing out of the morning. Do I ask for someone to stay with him? Do I suggest that he waits until September when we have the space for him to come for three mornings a week? Do we just continue as we are and hope that he comes around with time? I have never come across this before, usually any children who are setteling in can be distracted and comforted and we have always prided ourselves on how well children settle with us. Any advice would be most welcome. :huh:
