As a provider, I understand and respect your need to work, but for the health and safety of all children, I will not accept a child that is sick. Please keep your child home if (s)he is sick. A child that is sick cannot participate in daily activities and routines and cannot be successful in group care. You will be asked to pick up your child or keep your child home if (s)he has the following symptoms:
Fever with a temperature over 100 degrees
Diarrhea
Vomiting
Difficulty breathing, chronic coughing or wheezing
Any contagious condition including ringworm, bedbugs, head lice, or pink eye

You must report life-threatening diseases immediately
I will notify all parents within 24 hours if a communicable disease is reported at my child care
*In cases of fever, diarrhea and/or vomiting, the child should not return to care until 24 hours have passed since the last sign of the symptom.
