Does anybody have a lawyer hubby that could answer the question of liabilty on something like a food allergy. The assumption with anything in daycare is that I will do my best to prevent accidents, injuries, etc. but to what degree are we responsible for preventing an allergic reaction other than doing our best. I mean I would feel awful if anything happened on my watch so to speak but at the same time I can only do so much with what I have to work with - thinking of the discussion above about the milk allergy if another child drools and I did put in my newsletter a reminder to parents about the nut allergy and to please use a bib or change the child's shirt, brush their teeth, wash hands with soap and water etc. if they use peanut butter at breakfast before coming but is it a requirement that I redo the teeth and hands just in case. I mean I would if I smelled peanut butter and let the parent know I was not impressed with their lack of care for the situation but beyond that.
