HELP!!!I have a doozie of a situation.
Ok guys here's a doozie!
So here is what is happening, A child in my care has been diagnosed with a skin virus that is contagious. The parent said the doctor said there is no exclusion period. HOWEVER, it seems to be getting worse and is spreading on the childs body and there are spots the child can't cover. Teleahealth suggested I get a doctors note from the doctor saying that the child is able to come back to daycare. I told the parents they are not able to bring the child back until I have this note. The sibling has a similar bump I've noticed. There is NOTHING in the days nursery act that helps me with this situation. It's a skin virus that is not common but is very contagious. I'm just trying to get some advice on what you would do if you were in my shoes. I have a new baby that just started 2 months ago and she is 13 months old. I have told all the parents and tried to keep the privacy of child however the kids infected has band aids all over their body.
Suggestions? Anyone! please!
