A child should not return to the Centre until they have been free from diarrhea for 24 hours. After having a fever, a child should not return to the Centre until their temperature has been normal for 24 hours. If we feel that your child is not well enough to attend, we will ask for a doctor’s note confirming that he/she is not contagious and can attend the centre.
As a courtesy, we ask that you call us by 9:30 am each day that your child will be away due to illness. It is important to advise staff as soon as possible about the type of illness your child has contracted in order to help them identify symptoms in other children in the room.
A child with a communicable disease cannot be admitted to the daycare. If your child has contracted a communicable illness (i.e. measles, mumps, chicken-pox, strep throat, pink eye, impetigo) please notify a staff member at the daycare. If exposure has unknowingly been present at the daycare, we will inform the other parents in the room that their child may have been exposed. Please consult with your doctor to confirm that your child is no longer contagious.
