Vaccines and childcare

[Judy Trickett]

I do not vaccinate my own kids. I don't really care what dcparents do or don't do. I don't ask and I don't tell. It's none of their business. Now, if something comes up in conversation I might mention it. It's not like I hide the fact my kids are not vaxed but I don't go around broadcasting it either - just like I wouldn't broadcast anything else about my personal life.

I also have a 48 hour exclusion policy. If a dckid was vaxed they can not attend for a period of 48 hours. There are far too many chances of adverse reaction with regard to vaccines and children and I do not want that happening while in my care. Not to mention some vaccines shed and I don't want other kids exposed to that.
