Reasonable amount of days to close/year due to sickness

[Momof4]

I work with colds all the time and I've only taken 1 sick day in 5 years but it would be different if you have small children who are sick and need your attention. If I had the flu and was vomiting I would have to close of course. However, every time I've had bad colds I have contracted them from the daycare children so they are usually recovering from the same virus and there is no danger to them to catch what I have.
