Sickness:
If your child has a temperature, is suffering from
sickness or diarrhoea, or is obviously unwell, please
do not bring then into the Nursery until they are
noticeably better again. Children should not return
within 24 hours after the last bout of sickness or
diarrhoea.
Colds:
A child with a slight cold, who seems happy and is
not running a high temperature, may come to the Nursery.
At any sign of more serious illness (coughing or sore
throats, for example) he or she must be withdrawn
immediately to safeguard his/her own health and that
of the other children and staff.
Medical
Treatment:
Please advise your child's key worker if your child
is receiving medical attention, has recently been
immunised, or suffers from any allergies. If your
child requires medicine during the day we are only
able to administer prescribed medicine that is provide
in the original packaging (i.e. with the dosage instructions
and the name of the child). You will be asked to fill
in a medication form, which will be signed by two
staff members each time the medicine is administered.
Notification:
If your child is unwell and not able to attend the
Nursery please phone the Nursery on 01323 491821.
Accidents:
We have an Accident Report Book for accidents that
occur at the Nursery which parents will be asked to
sign following discussion of the incident with staff.
If children come in with injuries parents will be
asked to sign the Accident Book on reporting it to
staff.
Emergencies:
If you child becomes ill whilst in our care, every
effort will be made to contact you.
The Nursery Manager reserves the right to remove your
child to hospital if senior staff consider it necessary.
