Tips for Staying Healthy w/ Child in Daycare?

alliapistor · December 2011

LO started daycare last week. By Thursday night/Friday morning, I had a nasty stomach bug which DH came down with later Friday night/Saturday morning. LO seems fine so far though, thankfully. I was hoping it wouldn't be too bad since there are only 12 kids, but apparently not.

Any tips for trying to stay as healthy as possible when your child goes to a germ pool every day?

I teach and Elle is in daycare--double whammy. Just wash your hands and his--at the beginning I would completely change our clothes as soon as we got home. We just suffered through the first year--building immunity!

Logan's in preschool so kind of the same as daycare, but not quite. I know his teacher makes them use hand sanitizer the second they walk into the classroom and right before they leave. She also cleans the toys at the end of everyday! But I've done what PP mentioned and change his clothes as soon as he gets home from preschool. I started taking probiotics when Lily started pre school years ago b/c we were always getting sick!

At Landon's school they make us wash our handaand the babies' hands when we enter. We wear foot booties. They wash babies' hands before/after diaper changes and meals. They sanitize toys 2x a day.

We are still always sick.

And I have 5 years of teacher's immunity too!
