  • Illness

    Any child with a fever of 101 ° or more, contagious skin or eye infection, vomiting or diarrhea should not attend. We are aware of your responsibilities as a working parent but we must take all precautions against the spread of infections and illnesses to our other children and caregivers. Should your child become ill while in our care, contacting the child’s parent will be first priority, we will take necessary care to see that he/ she is comforted and tended to until someone comes to pick up. Children who may be contagious or require one on one attention may be excluded until he/ she is picked up. Some symptoms that indicate infection or illness include but are not limited to: thick yellow or green nasal discharge accompanied by another symptom, diarrhea, vomiting, watery or goopy eye discharge, a rash anywhere on the body (chicken pox) or persistent cough. A doctor should always see a child with a rash or a cough, underlying illnesses may be occurring. If your child is ill, bringing them to daycare on Tylenol or other fever reducing medication will only mask a fever, but not the spreading of germs to other children and caregivers. Your child may return to Beginners Inn when: he/ she is symptom-free, fever free (below 101 °) for 24 hours without medication or has been on prescribed medication for 24 hours. Rashes need to be confirmed by a doctor in writing that the rash is not contagious. These guidelines have been set by the State of Michigan licensing to protect children from disease and illnesses.


    Please notify the center immediately if your child becomes infected with a contagious disease. Our staff will inform parents with a posted notice on all parent information boards.
