Please help keep our infants,
children & pregnant mothers safe by following these health
guidelines.
If you or your child (or a sibling) has one or more of the
symptoms listed below, please be considerate and stay home:
-
Children with known or
suspected communicable diseases e.g. measles, chicken pox,
lice, etc
-
Infected skin or eyes or
undiagnosed rash (e.g. conjunctivitis, poison ivy, etc);
children should not attend until the prescribed drops/cream
or treatment are complete or incubation period recommended
by doctor has passed
-
Has eye drainage or matter in
the eye
-
Has vomited or had diarrhea
in last 48 hours
-
Has common cold with
listlessness, yellow or green runny nose, persistent cough
or sore throat; in general a person who catches a cold can
spread it for 1 day before the symptoms appear and about 5
days after the cold symptoms begin
-
Has or had a fever of 100.4
degrees or higher in last 48 hours
-
Has been on antibiotics for
less than 48 hours
-
Pain - any complaint of
unexplained or undiagnosed pain (not including complaints
like teething)
If child has clear runny
nose, then use your best judgment as to whether it's sickness
or allergy/teething (likely if it's after sickness, it's still
contagious).
If you decide to bring your child with clear runny nose,
please be diligent about wiping your child's nose often and
using sanitary techniques after (washing hands).
If you or your child/sibling gets sick soon after playgroup,
please send an email to the group so they understand they may
have been exposed to the illness.
