As above i am also a nursery assistant who knows how hard it is for parents to keep their children at home when their sick because of work. but at the moment their is a bug going around the centre i work in and some parents are coming in saying their doctor says its not contagious but it clearly is as alot of the children are falling ill with this bug and some parents are being honest and keeping their children at home as their doctor says it is contagious. I am now at home with this bug and am using a sick day for an illness that i would not have got if the parents were honest and kept their children home until their symptoms were gone.

I understand this is a blog for parents. When a child vomits it is through licencing regulations that we as childcare providers call the parents and notify that your child has vomit. Due to so many bacterias and sickness surrounding the center we have to take precaution and think about the well being of your child and the well being of other children.
You have to understand that we as childcare providers have to follow certain guidelines. It is not to hurt you any form or fashion it is the safety and health reasons. With so much going on today you should thank your lucky stars that someone cares enough about your child and call you and let you know your child may not be feeling well. Without that call something severly could happen and then it would be the daycares fault for not notifying you about your child. Please understand.
